The detection and characterization of large populations of pebbles in protoplanetary disks
have motivated the study of pebble accretion as a driver of planetary growth. This review …

In this chapter we will discuss the evolution of dust in protoplanetary disks, focusing on the
processes of grain growth and the observational consequences of this process. In the …

Abstract The Disk Substructures at High Angular Resolution Project (DSHARP) is the largest
homogeneous high-resolution (∼ 0 farcs 035, or∼ 5 au) disk continuum imaging survey …

Turbulence is a crucial factor in many models of planet formation, but it has only been
directly constrained among a small number of planet-forming disks. Building on the upper …

Context. The global size and spatial distribution of dust is an important ingredient in the
structure and evolution of protoplanetary disks and in the formation of larger bodies, such as …

The latest observation of HL Tau by ALMA revealed spectacular concentric dust rings in its
circumstellar disk. We attempt to explain the multiple ring structure as a consequence of …

Gas kinematics are an important part of the planet formation process. Turbulence influences
planetesimal growth and migration from the scale of submicron dust grains through gas …

The formation of planetary cores must proceed rapidly in order for the giant planets to
accrete their gaseous envelopes before the dissipation of the protoplanetary gas disc (≲ 3 …

We perform local, vertically stratified shearing-box MHD simulations of protoplanetary disks
(PPDs) at a fiducial radius of 1 AU that take into account the effects of both Ohmic resistivity …

The solid content of circumstellar disks is inherited from the interstellar medium: dust
particles of at most a micrometer in size. Protoplanetary disks are the environment where …
