Research into the formation of massive planets is crucial for understanding the evolution of planetary systems and assessing the potential for habitable environments on exoplanets. Despite the growing body of research, there remains a gap in comprehending the complexities of how these massive bodies form, migrate, and interact with their host stars. This study aims to fill that gap by investigating the processes underlying the formation and evolution of massive planets. Focusing on the role of gravitational forces, internal structures, and atmospheric compositions, the research delves into the core accretion model and the disk instability model, both of which offer insights into planetary formation mechanisms. The study also examines the migration patterns of massive planets and their effects on surrounding celestial bodies, particularly within the context of protoplanetary disks and stellar radiation. The interactions between massive planets and their host stars are also analyzed, highlighting the impact of tidal forces and magnetic field interactions. The research findings confirm that massive planets play a critical role in shaping the dynamics of planetary systems, acting as “guardians” that influence the stability and evolution of other planets. The study concludes that understanding these massive planets’ formation and behavior is essential for developing more accurate models of planetary systems and advancing the search for extraterrestrial life.
