> 200 Extrasolar Planets discovered
• “Hot Jupiters”
• High masses
• Highly elliptical orbits

Overview planet formation (S.W.)
1. Introduction: Stars – Disks – Planets
2. Protoplanetary Disks: Observations
3. Disk models
1. Accretion, Transport Processes
2. Local Structure and Stability
4. Planet Formation Scenarios
5. Extrasolar Planets
The solar system: some striking facts
Planetary orbits are coplanar
Planets orbit the sun in the same direction
Distribution of Mass and Angular Momentum:
Sun Mass: 99.86% but Angular Momentum <2%
Age estimation: Sun and Planets have been formed at the same time
Extrasolar Planets:
large masses, high excentricities, low orbits
Immanuel Kant
“Allgemeine Naturgeschichte und Theorie des Himmels” (1755)
Solar System is evolving
Planets are formed from rotating gas disks
Star Formation – Planet Formation
Protostellar / Young circumstellar / Protoplanetary Disk:
- Gas / Dust disks around protostars
- typical diameter: a few 100 AU
Planet Formation: “Byproduct” of Star formation:
Collapse of a rotating molecular cloud core
(angular momentum <> 0)
=> Formation of a rotating distribution of the
infalling material around the central object
(Protostar / Pre-main-sequence Star)
Circumstellar Disks
- “Reservoir” for mass and angular momentum
- Environment + Material for Planet Formation
- Evolve in time (structure + composition)
