Formation of Habitable Planets in Inclined Planetary Systems

We extensively investigate the terrestrial planetary formation for the inclined planetary systems (considering the OGLE-2006-BLG-109L system as example) in the late stage. In the simulations, we show that the occurrence of terrestrial planets appears to be common in the final assembly stage. Moreover, we find that a lot of runs finally occupy at least one planet in the habitable zone (HZ). On the other hand, the numerical results also indicate that the inner region of the planetesimal disk, ranging from ~ 0.1 to 0.3 AU, plays an important role in building up terrestrial planets. The outcomes suggest that it may exist moderate possibility for the inclined systems to harbor terrestrial planets in the HZ.
