A Pathway for Collisional Planetesimal Growth in the Ice-dominant Regions of Protoplanetary Disks
We present a semi-analytic model for the growth, drift, desorption, and fragmentation of millimeter- to meter-sized particles in protoplanetary disks. Fragmentation occurs where particle collision velocities exceed critical fragmentation velocities. Using this criterion, we produce fragmentation reg...
