    Recent Simulations of the Late Stages Growth of Jupiter (2012)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-19
    Description: Presented by Lissauer et al. (2009, Icarus 199, 338) are used to test the model of capture of Jupiter's irregular satellites within proto-Jupiter's distended and thermally-supported envelope. We find such capture highly unlikely, since the envelope shrinks too slowly for a large number of moons to be retained, and many of those that would be retained would orbit closer to the planet than do the observed Jovian irregulars. Our calculations do not address (and therefore do not exclude) the possibility that the irregular satellites were captured as a result of gas drag within a circumjovian disk. Support for this research from NASA Outer Planets Research Program is gratefully acknowledged.

    Enhancement of the Accretion of Jupiters Core by a Voluminous Low-Mass Envelope (2013)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-19
    Description: We present calculations of the early stages of the formation of Jupiter via core nucleated accretion and gas capture. The core begins as a seed body of about 350 kilometers in radius and orbits in a swarm of planetesimals whose initial radii range from 15 meters to 100 kilometers. We follow the evolution of the swarm by accounting for growth and fragmentation, viscous and gravitational stirring, and for drag-induced migration and velocity damping. Gas capture by the core substantially enhances the cross-section of the planet for accretion of small planetesimals. The dust opacity within the atmosphere surrounding the planetary core is computed self-consistently, accounting for coagulation and sedimentation of dust particles released in the envelope as passing planetesimals are ablated. The calculation is carried out at an orbital semi-major axis of 5.2 AU and an initial solids' surface density of 10/g/cm^2 at that distance. The results give a core mass of 7 Earth masses and an envelope mass of approximately 0.1 Earth mass after 500,000 years, at which point the envelope growth rate surpasses that of the core. The same calculation without the envelope gives a core mass of only 4 Earth masses.

    Photoevaporation and the Dispersal of Disks (2014)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-20
    Description: Disk disperse in a few million years, before which they must form planets. Photoevaporation and viscosity are mainly responsible for disk dispersal. EUV, FUV and X-rays have all been suggested as photoevaporation agents, disk evolutionary scenarios and predicted mass loss rates in each case differ. Stellar mass and radiation field, disk properties, magnitude of viscosity, and dust evolution all play significant roles in determining the evolution of the disk and its lifetime. Observational diagnostics of photoevaperative flows include [Nell] and perhaps [OI]. These are at present inconclusive and better diagnostics are needed.
