Extrasolar Planets:

Formation and Dynamics

26 June – 1 July 2016, Physikzentrum Bad Honnef, Germany

Wilhelm Kley (Tübingen), Cornelis Dullemond (Heidelberg), Nader Haghighipour (Hawaii)

The goal of the school is to provide a solid pedagogical introduction into the general field of Planetary Formation with

emphasis on the special requirement of extrasolar planets. The planet formation process will be presented starting from

the very early phase of dust agglomeration up to the assembly of fully grown planets. Building upon the ideas on how to

form the Solar System, the focus of the school will lie on the main theoretical foundations that have emerged after the

detection of extrasolar planets. Lectures will be given by international experts in the field. In little projects the participants

will have the opportunity to work on particular problems in the field.
