Gas Flow across Gaps in Protoplanetary Disks
Open accessAbstract
We analyze the gas accretion flow through a planet-produced gap in a protoplanetary disk. We adopt the α-disk model and ignore effects of planetary migration. We develop a semianalytic, one-dimensional model that accounts for the effects of the planet as a mass sink and also carry out two-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations of a planet embedded in a disk. The predictions of the mass flow rate through the gap based on the semianalytic model generally agree with the hydrodynamic simulations at the 25% level. Through these models, we are able to explore steady state disk structures and over large spatial ranges. The presence of an accreting ~1 M J planet significantly lowers the density of the disk within a region of several times the planet's orbital radius. The mass flow rate across the gap (and onto the central star) is typically 10%-25% of the mass accretion rate outside the orbit of the planet, for planet-to-star mass ratios that range from 5 × 10 -5 to 1 × 10 -3 .

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.
