摘要
Context. The initial particle growth in protoplanetary disks is limited by a bouncing barrier at submillimeter wavelengths. Bouncing leads to tribocharging and the electrostatic attraction of tribocharged aggregates may eventually draw them into large clusters. A charge- mediated growth phase allows for the formation of larger entities, namely, clusters of aggregates that are more prone to further particle concentrations, such as the streaming instability. Aims. We aim to quantify the strength of the electrostatic forces. Methods. In laboratory experiments, we used an acoustic trap to levitate small aggregates of tribocharged submm grains. These aggregates spin up within the trap until they lose grains. Thus, we used the centrifugal force as a measure of the local force. Results. Grains are regularly bound strongly to their neighbors. In comparison, the force at ejection can be stronger than the attractive scattering forces of the trap and can therefore be several orders of magnitude larger than expected. We note that these forces are long- ranging, compared to van der Waals forces. Thus, charged aggregates are much more stable than uncharged ones. Conclusions. Particle aggregates in disks might grow to centimeter clusters or larger as tribocharging increases the effective binding forces. This allows for hydrodynamic concentration and planetesimal formation to eventually take place throughout a wide part of the disk.
