The American Astronomical Society (AAS), established in 1899 and based in Washington, DC, is the major organization of professional astronomers in North America. Its membership of about 7,000 individuals also includes physicists, mathematicians, geologists, engineers, and others whose research and educational interests lie within the broad spectrum of subjects comprising contemporary astronomy. The mission of the AAS is to enhance and share humanity's scientific understanding of the universe.

The Institute of Physics (IOP) is a leading scientific society promoting physics and bringing physicists together for the benefit of all. It has a worldwide membership of around 50 000 comprising physicists from all sectors, as well as those with an interest in physics. It works to advance physics research, application and education; and engages with policy makers and the public to develop awareness and understanding of physics. Its publishing company, IOP Publishing, is a world leader in professional scientific communications.

Abstract

Using the density and temperature profiles resulting from a two-dimensional turbulent model of the solar nebula as well as an appropriate law for the time variation of the disk accretion rate, we integrate the equation of diffusion that rules the evolution of the D/H ratio in H2O and HCN throughout the nebula. By fitting D/H measured in LL3 meteorites and comets or inferred in proto-Uranian and proto-Neptunian ices, we constrain the parameters of the model, namely, the initial accretion rate dot M(0), the initial radius of the turbulent disk RD, and the α-coefficient of turbulent viscosity, and we find 2 × 10-6 < dot M(0) < 10-5 M yr-1, 12.8 < RD < 39 AU, and 0.006 < α < 0.04. Under the assumption that cometary cores are homogeneous, the microscopic icy grains that subsequently formed cometesimals were produced in the Uranus-Neptune region and no later than 3.5 × 105 yr. The epochs of the formation of Jupiter and Saturn cannot be lower than 0.7 and 5.7 Myr, respectively, after the formation of the Sun. Uranus and Neptune were completed after the dissipation of the nebula. The enrichment in volatiles with respect to the solar abundance measured by the Galileo probe in Jupiter may result from the trapping of these gases in the form of clathrate hydrates in the feeding zone of the forming planet.
