\section*{Paper I:\\How to form planetesimals from mm-sized chondrules and chondrule aggregates}

\textbf{D.~Carrera}, A.~Johansen, M.B.~Davies (2015) \\
Astronomy \& Astrophysics, vol.~579, A43 (20 p.)\\[6mm]

Anders Johansen provided the original project idea. I ran the computer simulations and performed the analysis. I developed the methodology, derived from the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, to identify long-lived particle clumps. I also contributed the idea and the methodology to extrapolate the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution to small scales in order to constrain the particle collisions speeds inside the filaments.
