(shortened) We perform 3D hydrodynamic simulations of gas flowing around a planetary core of mass mplan=10me embedded in a near Keplerian background flow, using a modified shearing box approximation. We employ a nested grid hydrodynamic code with as many as six nested grids, providing spatial resolution on the finest grid comparable to the present day diameters of Neptune and Uranus. We find that a strongly dynamically active flow develops such that no static envelope can form. The activity is not sensitive to plausible variations in the rotation curve of the underlying disk. It is sensitive to the thermodynamic treatment of the gas, as modeled by prescribed equations of state (either `locally isothermal or `locally isentropic) and the temperature of the background disk material. The activity is also sensitive to the shape and depth of the cores gravitational potential, through its mass and gravitational softening coefficient. The varying flow pattern gives rise to large, irregular eruptions of matter from the region around the core which return matter to the background flow: mass in the envelope at one time may not be found in the envelope at any later time. The angular momentum of material in the envelope, relative to the core, varies both in magnitude and in sign on time scales of days to months near the core and on time scales a few years at distances comparable to the Hill radius. We show that material entering the dynamically active environment may suffer intense heating and cooling events the durations of which are as short as a few hours to a few days. Peak temperatures in these events range from $T sim 1000$ K to as high as $T sim 3-4000$ K, with densities $rhosim 10^{-9}-10^{-8}$ g/cm$^3$. These time scales, densities and temperatures span a range consistent with those required for chondrule formation in the nebular shock model.

Atmospheric heavy elements have been observed in more than a quarter of white dwarfs (WDs) at different cooling ages, indicating ongoing accretion of asteroidal material, whilst only a few per cent of the WDs possess a dust disk, and all these WDs ar
e accreting metals. Here, assuming that a rubble-pile asteroid is scattered inside a WDs Roche lobe by a planet, we study its tidal disruption and the long-term evolution of the resulting fragments. We find that after a few pericentric passages, the asteroid is shredded into its constituent particles, forming a flat, thin ring. On a timescale of Myr, tens of per cent of the particles are scattered onto the WD. Fragment mutual collisions are most effective for coplanar fragments, and are thus only important in $10^3-10^4$ yr before the orbital coplanarity is broken by the planet. We show that for a rubble pile asteroid with a size frequency distribution of the component particles following that of the near earth objects, it has to be roughly at least 10 km in radius such that enough fragments are generated and $ge10%$ of its mass is lost to mutual collisions. At relative velocities of tens of km/s, such collisions grind down the tidal fragments into smaller and smaller dust grains. The WD radiation forces may shrink those grains orbits, forming a dust disk. Tidal disruption of a monolithic asteroid creates large km-size fragments, and only parent bodies $ge100$ km are able to generate enough fragments for mutual collisions to be significant.
We report a new evaluation of the accretion properties of PDS~70b obtained with VLT/MUSE. The main difference from previous studies in Haffert et al. (2019) and Aoyama & Ikoma (2019) is in the mass accretion rate. Simultaneous multiple line observati
ons, such as H$alpha$ and H$beta$, can better constrain the physical properties of an accreting planet. While we clearly detected H$alpha$ emissions from PDS~70b, no H$beta$ emissions were detected. We estimate the line flux of H$beta$ with a 3-$sigma$ upper limit to be 2.3~$times$~10$^{-16}$~erg~s$^{-1}$~cm$^{-2}$. The flux ratio $F_{rm Hbeta}$/$F_{rm Halpha}$ for PDS~70b is $<$~0.28. Numerical investigations by Aoyama et al. (2018) suggest that $F_{rm Hbeta}$/$F_{rm Halpha}$ should be close to unity if the extinction is negligible. We attribute the reduction of the flux ratio to the extinction, and estimate the extinction of H$alpha$ ($A_{rm Halpha}$) for PDS~70b to be $>$~2.0~mag using the interstellar extinction value. %The expected $A_{rm Halpha}$ value in the gap of the protoplanetary disk at the PDS~70b location is 2.4~mag, which is consistent with the estimated extinction. By combining with the H$alpha$ linewidth and the dereddening line luminosity of H$alpha$, %we derive the PDS~70b dynamical mass and mass accretion rate to be hashimotor{12~$pm$~3~$M_{rm Jup}$} and $gtrsim$~5~$times$~10$^{-7}$~$M_{rm Jup}$~yr$^{-1}$, respectively. we derive the PDS~70b mass accretion rate to be $gtrsim$~5~$times$~10$^{-7}$~$M_{rm Jup}$~yr$^{-1}$. The PDS~70b mass accretion rate is an order of magnitude larger than that of PDS~70. We found that the filling factor $f_{rm f}$ (the fractional area of the planetary surface emitting H$alpha$) is $gtrsim$0.01, which is similar to the typical stellar value. The small value of $f_{rm f}$ indicates that the H$alpha$ emitting areas are localized at the surface of PDS~70b.
We present Direct Numerical Simulations of the transport of heat and heavy elements across a double-diffusive interface or a double-diffusive staircase, in conditions that are close to those one may expect to find near the boundary between the heavy-
element rich core and the hydrogen-helium envelope of giant planets such as Jupiter. We find that the non-dimensional ratio of the buoyancy flux associated with heavy element transport to the buoyancy flux associated with heat transport lies roughly between 0.5 and 1, which is much larger than previous estimates derived by analogy with geophysical double-diffusive convection. Using these results in combination with a core-erosion model proposed by Guillot et al. (2004), we find that the entire core of Jupiter would be eroded within less than 1Myr assuming that the core-envelope boundary is composed of a single interface. We also propose an alternative model that is more appropriate in the presence of a well-established double-diffusive staircase, and find that in this limit a large fraction of the core could be preserved. These findings are interesting in the context of Junos recent results, but call for further modeling efforts to better understand the process of core erosion from first principles.
Thanks to recent high resolution ALMA observations, there is an accumulating evidence for presence of giant planets with masses from $sim 0.01$ Jupiter mass to a few Jupiter mass with separations up to $ 100$~AU in the annular structures observed in
young protoplanetary discs. We point out that these observations set unique live constraints on the process of gas accretion onto sub-Jovian planets that were not previously available. Accordingly, we use a population synthesis approach in a new way: we build time-resolved models and compare the properties of the synthetic planets with the ALMA data at the same age. Applying the widely used gas accretion formulae leads to a deficit of sub-Jovian planets and an over-abundance of a few Jupiter mass planets compared to observations. We find that gas accretion rate onto planets needs to be suppressed by about an order of magnitude to match the observed planet mass function. This slower gas giant growth predicts that the planet mass should correlate positively with the age of the protoplanetary disc, albeit with a large scatter. This effect is not clearly present in the ALMA data but may be confirmed in the near future with more observations.
The detection of a dust disc around G29-38 and transits from debris orbiting WD1145+017 confirmed that the photospheric trace metals found in many white dwarfs arise from the accretion of tidally disrupted planetesimals. The composition of these plan
etesimals is similar to that of rocky bodies in the inner solar system. Gravitationally scattering planetesimals towards the white dwarf requires the presence of more massive bodies, yet no planet has so far been detected at a white dwarf. Here we report optical spectroscopy of a $simeq27,750$K hot white dwarf that is accreting from a circumstellar gaseous disc composed of hydrogen, oxygen, and sulphur at a rate of $simeq3.3times10^9,mathrm{g,s^{-1}}$. The composition of this disc is unlike all other known planetary debris around white dwarfs, but resembles predictions for the makeup of deeper atmospheric layers of icy giant planets, with H$_2$O and H$_2$S being major constituents. A giant planet orbiting a hot white dwarf with a semi-major axis of $simeq15$ solar radii will undergo significant evaporation with expected mass loss rates comparable to the accretion rate onto the white dwarf. The orbit of the planet is most likely the result of gravitational interactions, indicating the presence of additional planets in the system. We infer an occurrence rate of spectroscopically detectable giant planets in close orbits around white dwarfs of $simeq10^{-4}$.
