Physics

Scientific paper

In Ref. [1, 2], we showed that planetesimal-driven migration [3] overpowers that of Type I [4, 5] for planetary embryos with masses less than 8M . Here we present new N-body simulations that investigates how this result affects the migration and growth of a system of giant planet cores. Preliminary results suggest a heretofore unknown and unexpected mechanism for building all four giant planets.
