METIS Instrument Baseline
Imaging at 3 – 19 μm. with low/medium resolution slit spectroscopy as well as coronagraphy for high contrast imaging.
High resolution (R ~ 100,000) IFU spectroscopy at 3 – 5 μm, including extended instantaneous wavelength coverage.
Work at the diffraction limit with single conjugate (SC) and eventually assisted by a laser tomography adaptive optics (LTAO) system.

DIRECT IMAGING: DISRUPTING PLANET FORMATION THEORY WITH THE E-ELT
a.Start with a fit to RV distributions (Cumming et al. 2008) with brown dwarf companions (Reggiani et al. submitted)
b.Evidence for dependence of Co, planet frequency over range of mass and orbital radius, on stellar mass (Johnson et al. 2010; Clanton et al. 2014).
c.Initial conditions (and theory) suggest dependence on ratio of planet mass to star mass.
d.RV/micro-lensing/Imaging consistent with log-normal surface density peaking at 10 AU (Meyer et al. in prep).

Star Clusters, Disks, & Planets: E-ELT Opportunities
SYNERGIES
=> Building on legacy of VLT: E-ELT, JWST, and ALMA.
=> METIS and first-light instruments HARMONI & MICADO.
STAR CLUSTERS => Resolved IMFs within 10 Mpc.
DISKS
=> E-ELT will resolve planet-forming disks (gas and dust) inside 10 AU.
=> Spectro-astrometry: of what are forming planets in disks made?
=> E-ELT will detect planets in formation (and circumplanetary disks).
PLANETS
=> Direct detection of planets with known mass (constrain models).
=> Collide planet formation theory with planet populations vs. stellar mass.
=> Characterize gas giant planets, including phase maps, and weather!
=> Possible to image (and characterize) a handful of super-earths.

CA Phenomenology: Planet Masses and Orbits
Solid growth time: tp ~ Rp rp / [ d x d]
with d ~ M*/a and d~ sqrt(M*/a3)
tp ~ a5/2/ [M*3/2] cf. gas disk lifetime td ~ 1/M*
Given aouter, there is a timescale td ~ 1/M* giving Rp.

Very hard to form critical mass core beyond 10s of AU (all stars).
If Mp set by disk accretion: Mp ~ [dMacc/dt ] td ~ M*2 x (1/M*) ~ M*
Planet Mass linearly related to star mass.
GI Phenomenology: Planet Masses and Orbits
Toomre Parameter: Q ~ cs(a) / G(a)
with d ~ M*/a, d~ sqrt(M*/a3), and cs ~ sqrt(T) ~ (M*/a)1/4
Q ~ 1/ [M*1/4 a3/4]
Depends “weakly” on stellar mass, more strongly on radius. For typical disk parameters, should operate > 50 AU.
Typical fragment mass would be ~ cs4/(a) ~ 5 Mjupiter.
Massive planets, beyond 50 AU, independent of stellar mass.
