A Gas-poor Planetesimal Capture Model for the Formation of Giant Planet Satellite Systems
P. R. Estrada, I. Mosqueira
Assuming that an unknown mechanism (e.g., gas turbulence) removes most of the subnebula gas disk in a timescale shorter than that for satellite formation, we develop a model for th…
