NCCR Inter-Project Meeting #1: Planet Formation by Pebble Accretion
The first of NCCR inter-project meeting will be devoted to planet formation by pebbles accretion, and related topics, including: – theoretical models of planet formation by pebbles accretion – thermal and chemical evolution of pebbles during their drift in the protoplanetary disk – cosmo-chemical constraints on the origin of material forming the inner bodies of planetary systems (in particular solar system) – theoretical models of pebble formation – dust/solid observations in protoplanetary disks – any other related topics. The meeting will…
