[Interactive] τ-Zcrit map for the key results from Li & Youdin, 2021, Thresholds for Particle Clumping by the Streaming Instability
-
[Video] State-of-the-art 3D simulation of planetesimal formation with hitherto the highest grid resolution and with more than 100 million dust particles from Li, Youdin, & Simon, 2019, Demographics of Planetesimals Formed by the Streaming Instability.
Some variations of this video are available: (i) particle only, 3D; (ii) particle only, 3D, grayscale, and (iii) particle only, 2D.

[Video] An example N-body simulation of a six-planet system initially in a near-resonant chain, where two major merger events take place in the 100 Myr of evolution. Data is from Li, Chiang, Choksi, & Dai, 2025, The Resonant Remains of Broken Chains from Major and Minor Mergers
