DustPy: A Python Package for Dust Evolution in Protoplanetary Disks

Many processes during the evolution of protoplanetary disks and planet formation are highly sensitive to sizes dust particles that present in disk: The efficiency accretion disk volatile transport on particles, gravoturbulent instabilities leading planetesimals, or pebbles onto large planetary embryos form giant planets typical examples depend involved. Furthermore, radiative properties like absorption scattering opacities particle sizes. To interpret observations disks, a proper estimate is needed. We DustPy - A Python package simulate disks. solves gas including viscous advection diffusion as well collisional growth particles. written with modular concept, such every aspect model can be easily modified extended allow for multitude research opportunities.
