The role of ice lines in the formation of Uranus and Neptune.

Abstract:

We aim at investigating whether the chemical composition of the outer region of the protosolar nebula can be consistent with current estimates of the elemental abundances in the ice giants. To do so, we use a self-consistent evolutionary disc and transport model to investigate the time and radial distributions of H2O, CO, CO2, CH3OH, CH4, N2 and H2S, i.e. the main O-, C-, N and S-bearing volatiles in the outer disc. We ...
