Normal inner and outer Lindblad torques for various values of the disk thickness H/ r evaluated including the effect of the pressure buffer (see W97), and normalized by the value T o ≡ ( M p / M *) 2Σ r 4Ω 2( H/ r) −3 evaluated at the planet location, where M * is the mass of the host star. The torques are cut off for m > Δ m cutoff∝( H/ r) −1.
