To understand the occurrence and properties of exoplanets and maximize the chance of finding them, it is crucial to understand the formation of planetary systems in general and that of terrestrial planets in particular.
This session focuses on planet formation theories for gas and ice giants and terrestrial rocky planets around various types of stars, including theories of type I and type II migration to in-situ formation of hot jupiters. The theme of the session will also include planet formation time-scales corresponding to the different hypotheses, as well as putting the formation of Solar System planets in context with the formation of
exoplanets.
