We study the evolution of the eccentricity and inclination of protoplanetary embryos and low-mass protoplanets (from a fraction of an Earth mass to a few Earth masses) embedded in a protoplanetary disc, by means of three dimensional hydrodynamics calculations with radiative transfer in the diffusion limit. When the protoplanets radiate in the surrounding disc the energy released by the accretion of solids, their eccentricity and inclination experience a growth toward values which depend on the luminosity to mass ratio of the planet, which are comparable to the discs aspect ratio and which are reached over timescales of a few thousand years. This growth is triggered by the appearance of a hot, under-dense region in the vicinity of the planet. The growth rate of the eccentricity is typically three times larger than that of the inclination. In long term calculations, we find that the excitation of eccentricity and the excitation of inclination are not independent. In the particular case in which a planet has initially a very small eccentricity and inclination, the eccentricity largely overruns the inclination. When the eccentricity reaches its asymptotic value, the growth of inclination is quenched, yielding an eccentric orbit with a very low inclination. As a side result, we find that the eccentricity and inclination of non-luminous planets are damped more vigorously in radiative discs than in isothermal discs.
Discs in binaries have a complex behavior because of the perturbations of the companion star. Planet formation in binary-star systems both depend on the companion star parameters and on the properties of the circumstellar disc. An eccentric disc may
As of today ten circumbinary planets orbiting solar type main sequence stars have been discovered. Nearly all of them orbit around the central binary very closely to the region of instability where it is difficult to form them in situ. It is assumed
We predict magnitudes for young planets embedded in transition discs, still affected by extinction due to material in the disc. We focus on Jupiter-size planets at a late stage of their formation, when the planet has carved a deep gap in the gas and
The minor planets on orbits that are dynamically stable in Neptunes 1:1 resonance on Gyr timescales were likely emplaced by Neptunes outward migration. We explore the intrinsic libration amplitude, eccentricity, and inclination distribution of Neptun
Gas giant planets may form early-on during the evolution of protostellar discs, while these are relatively massive. We study how Jupiter-mass planet-seeds (termed protoplanets) evolve in massive, but gravitationally stable (Q>1.5), discs using radiat
