Giant Planet Migration through the Action of Disk Torques and Planet-planet Scattering
This paper presents a parametric study of giant planet migration through the combined action of disk torques and planet-planet scattering. The torques exerted on planets during Type II migration in circumstellar disks readily decrease the semi-major axes a, whereas scattering between planets increases the orbital eccentricities ǫ. This paper presents a parametric exploration of the possible par...
متن کاملA ug 2 00 7 Eccentricity evolution of giant planet orbits due to circumstellar disk torques
The extrasolar planets discovered to date possess unexpected orbital elements. Most orbit their host stars with larger eccentricities and smaller semi-major axes than similarly sized planets in our own solar system do. It is generally agreed that the interaction between giant planets and circumstellar disks (Type II migration) drives these planets inward to small radii, but the effect of these ...
متن کاملMigration and giant planet formation
X iv :a st ro -p h/ 04 03 57 4v 1 2 4 M ar 2 00 4 We extend the core-accretion model of giant gaseous planets by Pollack et al. ([1996]) to include migration, disc evolution and gap formation. Starting with a core of a fraction of an Earth’s mass located at 8 AU, we end our simulation with the onset of runaway gas accretion when the planet is at 5.5 AU 1 Myr later. This timescale is about a fac...
متن کاملPlanet Migration through a Self-Gravitating Planetesimal Disk
We simulate planet migration caused by interactions between planets and a planetesimal disk. We use an N-body integrator optimized for near-Keplerian motion that runs in parallel on a video graphics card, and that computes all pair-wise gravitational interactions. We find that the fraction of planetesimals found in mean motion resonances is reduced and planetary migration rates are on average a...
متن کاملGiant Planet Migration, Disk Evolution, and the Origin of Transitional Disks
We present models of giant planet migration in evolving protoplanetary disks. Our disks evolve subject to viscous transport of angular momentum and photoevaporation, while planets undergo Type II migration. We use a Monte Carlo approach, running large numbers of models with a range in initial conditions. We find that relatively simple models can reproduce both the observed radial distribution o...
