A Strategy for Understanding Planet Formation
Abstract
This white paper argues for a pan-chromatic approach to understanding planet formation including observations from X-rays through radio. Planet formation research seeks to address: where planets form in circumstellar disks, how material is transported through the disk and into planets, and how disks evolve in concert with their stars and planets.
