Abstract

Planets in formation interact gravitationally with the protoplanetary disk, causing their orbits to evolve. One of the most remarkable phenomena is the change in the planet's orbital radius, a process known as migration. This lecture will explore the different modes of migration as a function of planetary mass and disk properties. Planetary migration explains the presence of many planets observed close to their star.
