Scientific paper

We present an overwiew of some of the giant planet formation models, and the observational constraints they have to satisfy. We then present our extended core-accretion models, including migration and disk evolution, to calculate formation models of Jupiter and Saturn. We show that we can reproduce the bulk properties of the two planets (mass, distance to the sun, core mass, enrichment in heavy elements), as well as their atmospheric volatile enrichments.
