In our solar system, the largest planets are dominated by the gas giants located in the outer solar system. And in exoplanetary systems, large planets seem to be the norm based on our improving detection capabilities. One reason may be due to the fact that the larger planets have more mass and can accrete gas in disks which ultimately form planetary systems. This week, we welcome Sivan Ginzburg, a Postdoctoral Researcher and 51 Pegasi b Fellow working in theoretical #astrophysics from the Department of Astronomy at #Berkeley (@ucberkeley). He also has research interests in planetary formation and evolution. Please join us TODAY, Friday 31 May 2019, from 12-1 PM in @UCLA ’s Geology Building for his talk titled: ‘Accretion and Final Mass of Gas Giants’.

As we learned more about our solar system in relation to how it fares amongst the many exoplanetary systems discovered to date, ‘Hot Jupiters’ seemed to be the most common type of exoplanet. With the story unfolding as technology has been getting better, it seems that Hot Jupiters have been easy to detect and have strange and exotic atmospheres we are still learning more about. Strangely enough, our own solar system seems quite different to the many exoplanetary systems found thus far. As our final UCLA Planet Lunch Talk this quarter at @ucla , please join us with our speaker Elizabeth Bailey from Caltech (@caltechedu)! Addressing the issue of Hot Jupiters, her talk is entitled ‘Forming Hot Jupiters Near and Far’. By learning more about how #exoplanets form, we may learn more about how our own solar system (with Jupiter being the biggest planet) fits into the large scope for planetary science!
