Disk-satellite interactions
Abstract
The rate at which angular momentum and energy are transferred between a disk and a satellite which orbit a central mass is calculated. It is shown that the angular momentum and energy transfer at Lindblad resonances tends to increase the satellite's orbit to lowest order in eccentricity, whereas the transfer at corotation resonances tends to decrease it. The results are applied to the interaction between Jupiter and the protoplanetary disk. The angular momentum transfer is shown to be so rapid that substantial changes in both the structure of the disk and the orbit of Jupiter must have taken place on a time scale of a few thousand years.

“…in situ from a very massive disk, with fZ ∼ 30− 50; or 2) our assumption of in situ formation failed in this case: the planets of Gl 581 formed farther from the star (probably in the icy regions of a relatively massive disk, with fZ of at least 5-10) and migrated inward (Goldreich & Tremaine 1980).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
