This project aims to unravel the mechanisms of planet formation by studying the evolution of solid particles in gas disks around young stars. It combines detailed models of solid evolution with chemical and hydrodynamic simulations to understand the transport of building blocks for planets.
With close to 2000 detected planets, it is striking that we still do notunderstand how planets form.
Their building blocks form in gas disksaround young stars, where colliding dust grains form ever-largeraggregates.
But this growth is not without limits: larger particlesquickly drift towards the star and collide at speeds that shatter themto pieces, long before gravity can bind them together.
The mechanismsinvolved in the assembly and transport of these building blocks remainsome of the biggest…
