1 Planetesimal Dynamics Formation of Terrestrial Planets from Planetesimals Protoplanetary disk Gas/Dust Planetesimals yr yr Protoplanets yr Terrestrial planets Eiichiro Kokubo National Astronomical Observatory of Japan
2 Outline Basic Dynamics of Planetesimals (e.g., Stewart & Wetherill 1988; Ida 1990; Ida & Makino 1992a, b) Runaway Growth of Planetesimals Oligarchic Growth of Protoplanets (e.g., Wetherill & Stewart 1989; Kokubo & Ida 1996) (e.g., Kokubo & Ida 1998, 2002; Thommes+ 2003; Chambers 2006) Giant Impacts of Protoplanets (e.g., Chambers & Wetherill 1998; Agnor+ 1999; Kominami & Ida 2002; Raymond+ 2004; Kokubo+ 2006) Formation of Terrestrial Planets: The Movie (Miura & Kokubo 2007)
3 Basic Hypotheses of Planet Formation Disk Hypothesis A planetary system forms from a light circumstellar disk (protoplanetary disk) that is a by-product of star formation. A protoplanetary disk consists of gas and dust. Planetesimal Hypothesis Planetesimals are formed from dust. Solid planets are formed by accretion of planetesimals. Gaseous planets are formed by gas accretion onto solid planets ( core accretion model). (Safronov 1969; Hayashi+ 1985)
