Research Abstract |
Natural satellite systems around giant planets, such as Galilean moons, are thought to be formed in circumplanetary disks, which are believed to have existed when the giant planets were actively growing by capturing gas of protoplanetary disks. In order to understand the formation processes of satellite systems, I performed high-resolution hydrodynamic simulation and orbital numerical simulation, and obtained the structure of circumplanetary disks in detail and how solid particles, which are the building materials of the satellites, are delivered to the circumplanetary disks.
