On the various origins of close-in extrasolar planets
S. Marchi, S. Ortolani, M. Nagasawa +1
The extrasolar planets (EPs) so far detected are very different to the planets in our own Solar System. Many of them have Jupiter-like masses and close-in orbits (the so-called hot…
Dynamical Shakeup of Planetary Systems II. N-body simulations of Solar System terrestrial planet formation induced by secular resonance sweeping
E. W. Thommes, M. Nagasawa, D. N. C. Lin
We revisit the "dynamical shakeup" model of Solar System terrestrial planet formation, wherein the whole process is driven by the sweeping of Jupiter's secular resonance as the gas…
Formation of Hot Planets by a combination of planet scattering, tidal circularization, and Kozai mechanism
M. Nagasawa, S. Ida, T. Bessho
We have investigated the formation of close-in extrasolar giant planets through a coupling effect of mutual scattering, Kozai mechanism, and tidal circularization, by orbital integ…
Origin and Ubiquity of Short-Period Earth-like Planets: Evidence for the Sequential-Accretion Theory of Planet Formation
J. L. Zhou, S. J. Aarseth, D. N. C. Lin +1
The formation of gas giant planets is assumed to be preceded by the emergence of solid cores in the conventional sequential-accretion paradigm. This hypothesis implies that the pre…
