Formation of Super-Earths and Mini-Neptunes from Rings of Planetesimals
The solar system's planetary architecture has been proposed to be consistent with the terrestrial and giant planets forming from material rings at ∼1 au and ∼5 au, respectively. Here, we show that super-Earths and mini-Neptunes may share a similar formation pathway. In our simulations conducted...
