Extrasolar Planets

Scientific paper

The discovery of extrasolar planets revealed that planetary systems universally exist in the Galaxy. On the other hand, it brings new issues that how the extrasolar planets whose orbital properties are different from those of the planets in the solar system are formed and what the origin of the diversity of planetary systems is. We apply the oligarchic growth model of protoplanets and the conditions of gas giant planet formation to the protoplanetary disks with various masses. We show the dependence of the planetary diversity on the initial disk mass.
