CB disc properties and planet formation

Speaker

Matthew Bate

Description

I will discuss the formation mechanisms and resulting properties of stellar binary systems that are obtained from radiation hydrodynamical simulations of star cluster formation. I will also discuss the properties of the protoplanetary discs that are formed with these systems, concentrating on the frequencies and properties of circumbinary discs.
