The origin of high eccentricity planets: The dispersed planet formation regime for weakly magnetized disks

In the tandem planet formation regime, planets form at two distinct sites where solid particles are densely accumulated due to the on/off state of the magnetorotational instability (MRI). We found that tandem planet formation can reproduce the solid component distribution of the Solar System and ten...
