A model for the condensation of ring-shaped nebular matter into a protoplanet is described. The condensation is considered as a phase transition between a ring phase and a planetary phase. A constant nonzero temperature is assumed. The model is used to study the effect of physical parameters on the critical ring width permitting transition. The parameters considered are mass and temperature of the nebular matter.

Abstract
A model for the condensation of ring-shaped nebular matter into a protoplanet is described. The condensation is considered as a phase transition between a ring phase and a planetary phase. A constant nonzero temperature is assumed. The model is used to study the effect of physical parameters on the critical ring width permitting transition. The parameters considered are mass and temperature of the nebular matter.File in questo prodotto:
