Description

We make available here the results of our gas evolution simulations for the article "Large gaps and high accretion rates in photoevaporative transition disks with a dead zone".

We include the result of our population synthesis study, consisting in 10 tables corresponding to 9 models including both dead zone and photoevaporation, and 1 control model including photoevaporation only. The results can be plotted using the "Plotting-PopulationSynthesisModels.ipynb" jupyter notebook.

The tables including a dead zone are named as: Macc_Rhole_Pop_AD(X)_RD(Y).txt, where (X)*1.e-4 corresponds to the turbulence in the dead zone, and (Y)*AU corresponds to the dead zone radial extent.

The tables include the following fields: Simulation ID, Time [Myr] at which the snapshot was taken, Gap size [AU] measured at the outer edge, Accretion rate log[Msun/yr], and Gas disk mass. We also include a table called "LxRc_Distribution.txt", that indicates the X-ray luminosity log[erg/s] and initial disk characteristic radius [AU] used for the corresponding Simulation ID.

 

We also include the gas surface density evolution of a Control simulation, with photoevaporation only (with Lx = 1.e30 erg/s), and a Dead Zone + Photoevaporation simulation (with dead zone turbulence 1.e-4, and dead zone radial extend 10 AU). These can be plotted using the "Plotting-SingleGasEvolution.ipynb" jupyter notebook.
