Resumen:
We present our results on giant planet formation in the frame of the nucleated instability mechanism. We consider the oligarchic growth regime for the solid core and a reduction in the grain opacity. Under these assumptions, in situ giant planet formation is achievable in a timescale shorter than the lifetime of protoplanetary disks.
