Eccentricity of radiative disks in close binary-star systems

Year: 2012

Type: article

Abstract: Context. Disks in binaries have a complex behavior because of the perturbations of the companion star. Planetesimal growth and planet formation in binary-star systems both depend on the companion star parameters and the properties of the circumstellar disk. An eccentric disk may significantly increase the impact velocity of planetesimals and therefore jeopardize the accumulation process.
