Resonant Chains and the Convergent Migration of Planets in Protoplanetary Disks

An increasing number of compact planetary systems with multiple planets in a resonant chain have been detected. The resonant chain must be maintained by convergent migration of the planets due to planet–disk interactions if it is formed before the dispersal of the protoplanetary gas disk. For type I...
