The Planetesimal Bow Shock Model for Chondrule Formation: Sizes of Highly Eccentric Planetesimals and Initial Simulations for a Radially Migrating Jupiter
Abstract
Improved simulations of planetesimal orbital evolution in the presence of jovian resonances are reported to better evaluate the conditions under which chondrules may have formed in bow shocks of highly eccentric planetesimals.
