| Abstract: |
Planet evolution is tightly connected to the dynamics of both distant and close disk material. Hence, an appropriate description of disk-planet interaction requires global and high resolution computations, which we accomplish by applying a Nested-Grid method. Through simulations in two and three dimensions, we investigate how migration and accretion are affected by long and short range interactions. For small mass objects, 3D models provide longer growth and migration time scales than 2D ones do, whereas time lengths are comparable for large mass planets. |
