Properties of Planet-Forming Prostellar Disks

The proposal achieved many of its objectives. The main area of investigation was the interaction of young planets with surrounding protostellar disks. The grant funds were used to support visits by CoIs and visitors: Gordon Ogilvie, Gennaro D Angelo, and Matthew Bate. Funds were used for travel and partial salary support for Lubow. We made important progress in two areas described in the original proposal: secular resonances (Section 3) and nonlinear waves in three dimensions (Section 5). In addition, we investigated several new areas: planet migration, orbital distribution of planets, and noncoorbital corotation resonances.

Planet Forming Protostellar Disks

The proposal achieved many of its objectives. The main area of investigation was the interaction of young planets with surrounding protostellar disks. The topics of interest include: 1) Simulations of Planet-Disk Interactions; 2) Secular Interactions Between Inclined Planets and a Gaseous Disk; 3) On the Tilting of Protostellar Disks by Resonant Tidal Effects; 4) Three-Dimensional Waves in Thermally Stratified Disks; and 5) Predictions of the Distribution of Planets. A list of publications resulting from this grant is also presented.

Planet Forming Protostellar Disks

The project achieved many of its objectives. The main area of investigation was the interaction of young binary stars with surrounding protostellar disks. A secondary objective was the interaction of young planets with their central stars and surrounding disks. The grant funds were used to support visits by coinvestigators and visitors: Pawel Artymowicz, James Pringle, and Gordon Ogilvie. Funds were also used to support travel to meetings by Lubow and to provide partial salary support.
