Linking Planet Formation To Exoplanet Characteristics: C/O As A Diagnostic Of Planet Formation - Astrobiology

Summary by astrobiology.com
Gas-giant exoplanets are test cases for theories of planet formation as their atmospheres are proposed to carry signatures of their formation within the protoplanetary disk. The metallicity and C/O are key diagnostics, allowing to distinguish formation location within the disk (e.g., relative to snowlines), and mechanism (e.g., core accretion versus gravitational instability). We can now […] The post Linking Planet Formation To Exoplanet Charact…
