Core instability models of giant planet accretion II: forming planetary systems
Yamila Miguel, Adrian Brunini
We develop a simple model for computing planetary formation based on the core instability model for the gas accretion and the oligarchic growth regime for the accretion of the soli…
Constraints to Uranus' Great Collision. IV. The Origin of Prospero
Gabriela Parisi, Giovanni Carraro, Michele Maris +1
It is widely accepted that the large obliquity of Uranus is the result of a great tangential collision (GC) with an Earth size proto-planet at the end of the accretion. We attempt…
Oligarchic planetesimal accretion and giant planet formation
A. Fortier, O. G. Benvenuto, A. Brunini
Aims. In the context of the core instability model, we present calculations of in situ giant planet formation. The oligarchic growth regime of solid protoplanets is the model adopt…
The Origin and Nature of Neptune-like Planets Orbiting Close to Solar Type Stars
Adrián Brunini, Rodolfo G. Cionco
The sample of known exoplanets is strongly biased to masses larger than the ones of the giant gaseous planets of the solar system. Recently, the discovery of two extrasolar planets…
