Dependence of the resultant planetesimal belt on kSI. Left and right panels: cases of different given disk structures (Disk 2 and Disk 3, respectively; Table 1). Top panels: given disk structures. Bottom three panels: the same combination of Fp/g and the disk structure but different kSI. The dashed gray lines in the top panels show the analytically derived critical αmid/αacc for a given Fp/g, indicating that disks having smaller αmid/αacc than the critical one are expected to develop the ND mode (no dependence on kSI; Eq. (11)). The blue, green, red, and black lines represent time evolution. By t ≃ 3 x 105 years, all cases reach a steady-state in ρp/ρg and the planetesimals keep forming in a ring with a constant width. The gray lines represent the midplane pebble-togas ratio, ρp/ρg, at the steady-state shown in the right axis. Here, τs = 0.1 and Mg = 10−8 M⊙ yr−1 are used.
