  [abridged] Recent laboratory experiments indicate that destructive collisions
of icy dust particles occur with much lower velocities than previously thought.
When these new velocities are considered from laboratory experiments in dust
evolution models, a growth to pebble sizes in protoplanetary disks (PPDs) is
difficult. This may contradict (sub-)mm observations and challenge the
formation of planetesimals and planets. We investigate the conditions that are
required in dust evolution models for growing and trapping pebbles in PPDs when
the fragmentation speed is 1ms$^{-1}$ in the entire disk. We distinguish the
parameters controlling the effects of turbulent velocities, vertical stirring,
radial diffusion, and gas viscous evolution, always assuming that particles
cannot diffuse faster (radially or vertically) than the gas. To form pebbles
and produce effective particle trapping, the parameter that controls the
particle turbulent velocities must be small ($\delta_t\lesssim10^{-4}$). In
these cases, the vertical settling can limit the formation of pebbles, which
also prevents particle trapping. Therefore the parameter that sets the vertical
settling of the grains must be $\delta_z<10^{-3}$. Our results suggest that
different combinations of the particle and gas diffusion parameters can lead to
a large diversity of millimeter fluxes and dust-disk radii. When pebble
formation occurs and trapping is efficient, gaps and rings have higher contrast
at mm-emission than in the NIR. In the case of inefficient trapping, structures
are also formed at the two wavelengths, producing deeper and wider gaps in the
NIR. Our results highlight the importance of obtaining observational
constraints of gas and particle diffusion parameters and the properties of gaps
at short and long wavelengths to better understand basic features of PPDs and
the origin of the structures that are observed in these objects.
