Survival of Planetary Systems
Open accessAbstract
Gravitational interactions (i.e., disk tides) between a newly formed protoplanet and its precursor disk give rise to a net torque that drains angular momentum from the protoplanet's orbit. As a result, protoplanetary objects suffer orbital decay as the disk attempts to destroy the very system it spawns. Survival of a planetary system may be a rather uncertain outcome, and the fraction of circumstellar disks that produce an extant system could be significantly less than unity. Newly discovered close stellar companions may be circumstantial evidence of such large-scale orbit migrations. A scheme for in situ accretion of such objects is outlined that is consonant with a strong tidal influence.

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.
