Potential Vorticity Evolution in the Co-orbital Region of Embedded Protoplanets [electronic resource]
This thesis presents two-dimensional hydrodynamic disk simulations with embedded protoplanets, emphasizing the non-linear dynamics in the co-orbital region. In particular, it demonstrates how a protoplanetary disk responds to embedded low mass planets at the inviscid limit. Since the potential vorti...
