Summary of the various effects of radiation pressure of starlight on dust grains in disks: alpha particles = stable, orbiting particles on circular & elliptic orbits beta meteoroids = particles on hyperbolic orbits, escaping due to a large radiation pressure

Above a certain beta value, a newly created dust particle, released on a circular orbit of its large parent body (beta=0) will escape to infinity along the parabolic orbit. What is the value of beta guaranteeing escape? It’s 0.5 (see problem 1 from set #5). We call the physical radius of the particle that has this critical beta parameter a blow-out radius of grains. From the previous slide we see that in the beta Pictoris disk, the blow-out radius is equal ~2 micrometers. Observations of scattered light, independent of this reasoning show that, indeed, the smallest size of observed grains is s~2 microns. Particles larger but not much larger than this limit will stay in the disk on rather eccentric orbit.

Structure formation in dusty disks
8
The danger of overinterpretation of structure Are the PLANETS responsible for EVERYTHING we see? Are they in EVERY system? Or are they like the Ptolemy’s epicycles, added each time we need to explain a new observation?

Some models of structure in dusty disks rely on too limited a physics: ideally one needs to follow: full spatial distribution, velocity distribution, and size distribution of a collisional system subject to various external forces like radiation and gas drag -- that’s very tough to do! Resultant planet depends on all this. Beta = 0.01 (monodisp.)
16
Dangers of fitting planets to individual frames/observations: Vega has 0, 1, or 2 blobs, depending on bandpass. What about its planets? Are they wavelength- dependent too!? 850 microns

HD 141569A is a Herbig emission star >2 x solar mass, >10 x solar luminosity, Emission lines of H are double, because they come from a rotating inner gas disk. CO gas has also been found at r = 90 AU. Observations by Hubble Space Telescope (NICMOS near-IR camera). Age ~ 5 Myr, a transitional disk Gap-opening PLANET ? So far out?? R_gap ~350AU dR ~ 0.1 R_gap
18
Outward migration of protoplanets to ~100AU or outward migration of dust to form rings and spirals may be required to explain the structure in transitional (5-10 Myr old) and older dust disks

23
In the protoplanetary disks (tau ) dust follows gas. Sharp features due to associated companions: stars, brown dwarfs and planets. These optically thin transitional disks (tau <1) must have some gas even if it's hard to detect. Warning: Dust starts to move w.r.t. gas! Look for outer rings, inner rings, gaps with or without planets. These replenished dust disk are optically thin (tau<<1) and have very little gas. Sub-planetary & planetary bodies can be detected via spectroscopy, spatial distribution of dust, but do not normally expect sharp features. Extensive modeling including dust-dust collisions and radiation pressure needed Planetary systems: stages of decreasing dustiness Pictoris 1 Myr 5 Myr 12-20 Myr

Dust Avalanche (Artymowicz 1997) = disk particle, alpha meteoroid ( < 0.5) = sub-blowout debris, beta meteoroid ( > 0.5) Process powered by the energy of stellar radiation N ~ exp ( optical thickness of the disk * ) N
31
The above example is relevant to HD141569A, a prototype transitional disk (with interesting quasi-spiral structure.) Conclusion: Transitional disks MUST CONTAIN GAS or face self-destruction. Beta Pic is almost the most dusty, gas-poor disk, possible. the midplane optical thickness Ratio of the infrared luminosity (IR excess radiation from dust) to the stellar luminosity; it gives the percentage of stellar flux absorbed reemitted thermally multiplication factor of debris in 1 collision (number of sub-blowout debris) Avalanche growth equation Solution of the avalanche growth equation

From: Diogenes Laertius, (3rd cn. A.D.), IX.31 “The worlds come into being as follows: many bodies of all sorts and shapes move from the infinite into a great void; they come together there and produce a single whirl, in which, colliding with one another and revolving in all manner of ways, they begin to separate like to like.”Leucippus (Solar nebula of Kant & Laplace A.D. 1755-1776? Accretion disk?) “There are innumerable worlds which differ in size. In some worlds there is no Sun and Moon, in others they are larger than in our world, and in others more numerous. (...) in some parts they are arising, in others failing. They are destroyed by collision with one another. There are some worlds devoid of living creatures or plants or any moisture.” Democritus (Planets predicted: around pulsars, binary stars, close to stars ? ) There are infinite worlds both like and unlike this world of ours. For the atoms being infinite in number (...) there nowhere exists an obstacle to the infinite number od worlds. Epicurus (341-270 B.C.)

. Definition of logitude of pericenter (periapsis) a.k.a. misalignment angle
64
In the secular pertubation theory, semi-major axes (energies) are constant (as a result of averaging over time). Eccentricities and orbit misalignment vary, such as to conserve the angular momentum and energy of the system. We will show sets of thin theoretical curves for (e2, dw). [There are corresponding (e3, dw) curves, as well.] Thick lines are numerically computed full N-body trajectories. Classical celestial mechanics

67
N-body (planet-planet) or disk-planet interaction? Conclusions from modeling Ups And 1. Secular perturbation theory and numerical calculations spanning 2 Gyr in agreement. 2. The apsidal “resonance” (co-evolution) is expected and observed to be strong, and stabilizes the system of two nearby, massive planets 3. There are no mean motion resonances 4. The present state lasted since formation period 5. Eccentricities in inverse relation to masses, contrary to normal N-body trend tendency for equipartition. Alternative: a lost most massive planet - very unlikely 6. Origin still studied, Lin et al. Developed first models involving time-dependent axisymmetric disk potential

69
Wave excitation at Lindblad resonances (roughly speaking, places in disk in mean motion resonance, or commensurability of periods, with the perturbing planet) is the basis of the calculation of torques (and energy transfer) between the perturber and the disk. Finding precise locations of LRs is thus a prerequisite for computing the orbital evolution of a satellite or planet interacting with a disk. LR locations can be found by setting radial wave number k_r = 0 in dispersion relation of small-amplitude, m-armed, waves in a disk. [Wave vector has radial component k_r and azimuthal component k_theta = m/r] This location corresponds to a boundary between the wavy and the evanescent regions of a disk. Radial wavelength, 2*pi/k_r, becomes formally infinite at LR.
70
Disks and the eccentricity of planets: As long as there is some gas in the corotational region (say, +- 20% of orbital radius of a jupiter), eccentricity is strongly damped by the disk. Only if and when the gap becomes so wide that the near-lying LRs are eliminated, eccentricity is excited. (==> planets larger than 10 m_jup were predicted in 1992 to be on eccentric orbits ). In practice, disks may account for intermediate-e exoplanets. For extremely high e’s we need N-body explanations: perturbations by stars, or other planets.
71
Mass flows through the gap opened by a jupiter-class exoplanet ==> Superplanets can form Mass flows despite the gap. This result explains the possibility of “superplanets” with mass ~10 M J Inward migration explains hot jupiters.
