Abstract

AbstractWe investigate type I migration in a two-dimensional adiabatic disk. We find entropy perturbations that are advected in the planet's coorbital region. These entropy perturbations yield an excess of corotation torque that scales with the unperturbed entropy gradient at corotation. This torque excess can be large enough to slow down migration significantly, or even stop it.
