A semi-analytic model using elastoplastic contact mechanics and weakest-link fracture statistics reproduces the sticking-bouncing boundary from DEM simulations and places the bouncing barrier within ALMA-inferred size-velocity ranges for moderately porous aggregates.

2D radiation-hydrodynamical simulations find accretion outbursts unstable to Rossby-wave instability, forming vortices that suppress planetesimal formation until post-burst quiescence.
An optimal Stokes number window of 0.01-0.03 allows streaming instability to form planetesimals and pebble accretion to build all three main planet classes, with cold gas giants needing the lowest turbulence and largest discs.
Disk formation simulations reproduce carbonaceous chondrule oxygen isotopes with moderate radial infall or ice-depleted parental clouds, but ordinary chondrules inside the snow line remain difficult to explain under the modeled conditions.
