Disc-mass distribution in star-disc encounters

Year: 2011

Type: article

Abstract: Aims. Investigations of stellar encounters in cluster environments have demonstrated their potential influence on the mass and angular momentum of protoplanetary discs around young stars. We investigated how far the initial surface density in the disc surrounding a young star influences the outcome of an encounter.
