THE FORMATION OF STRIATED STRUCTURES IN DUST TAILS OF COMETS

The formation of striated structures in dust tails of comets

The mechanism of formation of striae structures in the dust tails of comets is Tracking Roller proposed.There are local active areas on the surfaces of comet nucleus.The formation of striae is indebted to the different rate of dust ejection from active areas depending on that they are located on the sunlit or shaded side Beanbags of the rotating nu

Instabilities at planetary gap edges in 3D self-gravitating disks

Numerical simulations are presented to study the stability of gaps opened by giant planets in 3D self-gravitating disks.In weakly self-gravitating disks, a few vortices develop 343 at the gap edge and merge on orbital time-scales.The result is one large but weak vortex with Rossby number -0.01.In moderately self-gravitating disks, more vortices dev
