Scientific paper

A model is proposed for the growth of embryonic planets that have expanding and overlapping feeding zones. The mass ratio of the largest bodies in each zone is comparable with the mass ratio of successive planets today. The relative velocities of the bodies would have been determined by the largest ones, which would have incorporated the bulk of the matter in their zones. The embryonic planets would have had orbital eccentricities similar to those of the present planets.
