| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed the new numerical code that includes the orbital evolution of protoplanets and collisional process of them. We carried out 10 simulations of terrestrial planet formation, and extracted the impact conditions for giant impacts. First we focused on the Martian moons, and discussed the possibility of their formation via a giant impact onto Mars. Next we showed that Pluto's satellite Charon can also be formed by a giant impact that happened in the outer solar system.
