abstract: "<p>Data and plotting scripts used for paper "Nonlinear Evolution of the Unstratified Polydisperse Dust Settling Instability" Aly &amp; Paardekooper 2025, Astronomy &amp; Astrophysics.</p><p><br></p><p>The Dust Settling Instability is thought to be triggered at the early stages of disc formation, and may play a role in planet formation. Here we numerically investigate its non-linear growth rate, paying close attention to the effects of spatial resolution and whether the dust consists of one or multiple species with different sizes.</p><p><br></p><p>The paper uses numerical hydrodynamics algorithms (Idefix and Fargo3D) to simulate the Dust Settling Instability in a local shearing box. The data (snapshots and time evolution tables), along with the plotting scripts are provided here.</p><p><br></p>"
