Fragmentation favoured in discs around higher mass stars
(Oxford University Press, 2020-03)We investigate how a protoplanetary disc’s susceptibility to gravitational instabilities and fragmentation depends on the mass of its host star. We use 1D disc models in conjunction with 3D smoothed particle hydrodynamics ... -
Massive discs around low-mass stars

The observational anatomy of externally photoevaporating planet-forming discs - I. Atomic carbon
(Oxford University Press, 2020-03)We demonstrate the utility of C I as a tracer of photoevaporative winds that are being driven from discs by their ambient UV environment. Commonly observed CO lines only trace these winds in relatively weak UV environments ... -
