Distribution of thermodynamic variables inside extra-solar protoplanets formed via disk instability

In this paper, distribution of thermodynamic variables inside extra-solar protoplanets in their initial stages, formed by gravitational instability, is presented. The case of conduction–radiation is considered regarding the transference of heat inside the protoplanets. The results are found to compa...

Description
Summary:In this paper, distribution of thermodynamic variables inside extra-solar protoplanets in their initial stages, formed by gravitational instability, is presented. The case of conduction–radiation is considered regarding the transference of heat inside the protoplanets. The results are found to compare well with the ones obtained by other investigations.
