| Abstract: |
While there is no such rocky planet in the solar system, super-Earths
in extrasolar systems may have massive hydrogen atmospheres. In this
paper I examine the possibility with results of my numerical
simulations of the accumulation of the atmospheres of protoplanets
embedded in protoplanetary disks. I also discuss how to distinguish
between atmospheres of disk origin and chondritic origin. |
