题  目：The Formation and Evolution of Exotic Planetary Systems with Multiple Planets

报告人：Professor Alice Quillen (University of Rochester)

摘  要：The Kepler mission has recently discovered hundreds of compact multiple planetary systems. These systems include tightly packed systems, systems in chains of mean motion resonances, and planets of high and low densities. We introduce theoretical attempts to account for relations between planetary spacing and orbital stability.  Planetary systems could have interacted in the past with a gas disk, scattered planetesimals or planetary embryos.  We discuss limits on orbit crossing planetesimal mass in the resonant HR8799 and Kepler KOI730 systems and formation scenarios for the exotic, extreme density contrast, closely spaced pair of planets in the Kepler 36 system.  We find that Kepler planetary systems never hosted massive debris disks and that fast collisions between planetary embryos and planets were likely during the late stages of planetary system formation.
