SculptingPlanet
Constrain the parameters of a single planet that sculpts the inner edge of a debris disc, using the model of Pearce et al. (2022). Download the Python code here.

GetTauMax
Calculate tauMax, the collisional lifetime of the largest bodies in a debris disc, based on the model of Löhne, Krivov & Rodmann (2008). By default the code uses the assumptions in Pearce et al. (2023, submitted). Download the Python code here.

MinSelfStirringDiscMass
Calculate the absolute minimum mass that a debris disc requires to self-stir, using the model of Pearce et al. (2022). Download the Python code here.

PlanetMassToCarveDebrisGap
Calculate the gap carved by a migrating planet embedded in a massive debris disc, using the model of Friebe, Pearce & Löhne (2022). Download the Python code here.
