We discovered a new growth mode of dust grains to km-sized bodies in protoplanetary disks that evolve by viscous accretion and magnetically driven disk winds (MDWs). We solved an approximate coagulation equation of dust grains with time-evolving disks that consist of both gas and solid components by a one-dimensional model. With the grain growth, all solid particles initially drift inward toward the central star by the gas drag force. However, the radial profile of gas pressure, $P$, is modified by the MDW that disperses the gas in an inside-out manner. Consequently, a local concentration of solid particles is created by the converging radial flux of drifting dust grains at the location with the convex upward profile of $P$. When the dimensionless stopping time, ${rm St}$, there exceeds unity, the solid particles spontaneously reach the growth dominated state because of the positive feedback between the suppressed radial drift and the enhanced accumulation of dust particles that drift from the outer part. Once the solid particles are in the drift limited state, the above-mentioned condition of ${rm St} gtrsim 1$ for the dust growth is equivalent with begin{equation} Sigma_{rm d}/Sigma_{rm g}gtrsim eta, onumber end{equation} where $Sigma_{rm d}/Sigma_{rm g}$ is the dust-to-gas surface-density ratio and $eta$ is dimensionless radial pressure-gradient force. As a consequence of the successful growth of dust grains, a ring-like structure containing planetesimal-sized bodies is formed at the inner part of the protoplanetary disks. Such a ring-shaped concentration of planetesimals is expected to play a vital role in the subsequent planet formation.

We present a novel mechanism for the outward transport of crystalline dust particles: the outward radial drift of pebbles. The dust ring structure is frequently observed in protoplanetary disks. One of the plausible mechanisms of the formation of dus t rings is the accumulation of pebbles around the pressure maximum, which is formed by the mass loss due to magnetically driven disk winds. In evolving protoplanetary disks due to magnetically driven disk winds, dust particles can migrate outwardly from the crystallization front to the pressure maximum by radial drift. We found that the outward radial drift process can transport crystalline dust particles efficiently when the radial drift timescale is shorter than the advection timescale. Our model predicts that the crystallinity of silicate dust particles could be as high as 100% inside the dust ring position.
Photoevaporation and magnetically driven winds are two independent mechanisms to remove mass from protoplanetary disks. In addition to accretion, the effect of these two principles acting concurrently could be significant and the transition between t hose two has not been extensively studied and quantified in the literature yet. In order to contribute to the understanding of disk winds, we present the phenomena emerging in the framework of two-dimensional axisymmetric, non-ideal magnetohydrodynamic simulations including EUV-/ X-ray driven photoevaporation. Of particular interest are the examination of the transition region between photoevaporation and magnetically driven wind, the possibility of emerging magneto-centrifugal wind effects, as well as the morphology of the wind itself depending on the strength of the magnetic field. We use the PLUTO code in a 2.5D axisymmetric configuration with additional treatment of EUV-/ X-ray heating and dynamic ohmic diffusion based on a semi-analytical chemical model. We identify the transition between both outflow types to occur for values of the initial plasma beta $beta geq 10^7$, while magnetically driven winds generally outperform photoevaporation for stronger fields. In our simulations we observe irregular and asymmetric outflows for stronger magnetic fields. In the weak field regime the photoevaporation rates are slightly lowered by perturbations of the gas density in the inner regions of the disk. Overall, our results predict a wind with a lever arm smaller than 1.5, consistent with a hot magneto-thermal wind. Stronger accretion flows are present for values of $beta < 10^7$.
We investigate the roles of magnetically driven disk wind (MDW) and thermally driven photoevaporative wind (PEW) in the long-time evolution of protoplanetary disks. We start simulations from the early phase in which the disk mass is $0.118,{mathrm{M} _{odot}}$ around a $1,{mathrm{M}_{odot}}$ star and track the evolution until the disk is completely dispersed. We incorporate the mass loss by PEW and the mass loss and magnetic braking (wind torque) by MDW, in addition to the viscous accretion, viscous heating, and stellar irradiation. We find that MDW and PEW respectively have different roles: magnetically driven wind ejects materials from an inner disk in the early phase, whereas photoevaporation has a dominant role in the late phase in the outer ($gtrsim1,$au) disk. The disk lifetime, which depends on the combination of MDW, PEW, and viscous accretion, shows a large variation of $sim1$-$20,$Myr; the gas is dispersed mainly by the MDW and the PEW in the cases with a low viscosity and the lifetime is sensitive to the mass-loss rate and torque of the MDW, whereas the lifetime is insensitive to these parameters when the viscosity is high. Even in disks with very weak turbulence, the cooperation of MDW and PEW enables the disk dispersal within a few Myr.

It has recently been shown that the inner region of protoplanetary disks (PPDs) is governed by wind-driven accretion, and the resulting accretion flow showing complex vertical profiles. Such complex flow structures are further enhanced due to the Hal l effect, especially when the background magnetic field is aligned with disk rotation. We investigate how such flow structures impact global dust transport via Monte-Carlo simulations, focusing on two scenarios. In the first scenario, the toroidal magnetic field is maximized in the miplane, leading to accretion and decretion flows above and below. In the second scenario, the toroidal field changes sign across the midplane, leading to an accretion flow at the disk midplane, with decretion flows above and below. We find that in both cases, the contribution from additional gas flows can still be accurately incorporated into the advection-diffusion framework for vertically-integrated dust transport, with enhanced dust radial diffusion up to an effective $alpha^{rm eff}sim10^{-2}$ for strongly coupled dust, even when background turbulence is weak $alpha<10^{-4}$. Dust radial drift is also modestly enhanced in the second scenario. We provide a general analytical theory that accurately reproduces our simulation results, thus establishing a framework to model global dust transport that realistically incorporates vertical gas flow structures. We also note that the theory is equally applicable to the transport of chemical species.
We present a new instability driven by a combination of coagulation and radial drift of dust particles. We refer to this instability as ``coagulation instability and regard it as a promising mechanism to concentrate dust particles and assist planetes imal formation in the very early stages of disk evolution. Because of dust-density dependence of collisional coagulation efficiency, dust particles efficiently (inefficiently) grow in a region of positive (negative) dust density perturbations, which lead to a small radial variation of dust sizes and as a result radial velocity perturbations. The resultant velocity perturbations lead to dust concentration and amplify dust density perturbations. This positive feedback makes a disk unstable. The growth timescale of coagulation instability is a few tens of orbital periods even when dust-to-gas mass ratio is of the order of $10^{-3}$. In a protoplanetary disk, radial drift and coagulation of dust particles tend to result in dust depletion. The present instability locally concentrates dust particles even in such a dust-depleted region. The resulting concentration provides preferable sites for dust-gas instabilities to develop, which leads to further concentration. Dust diffusion and aerodynamical feedback tend to stabilize short-wavelength modes, but do not completely suppress the growth of coagulation instability. Therefore, coagulation instability is expected to play an important role in setting up the next stage for other instabilities to further develop toward planetesimal formation, such as streaming instability or secular gravitational instability.
