Fig. 8

Monte Carlo sampling plot of the planet mass vs. the stellar metallicity, with the ice line planet formation model (scenario A) in the left, the log-uniform distributed planet formation model (scenario B) in the right, αt = 10−3 in the top and αt = 10−4 in the bottom. The color corresponds to the stellar mass. The gray dashed lines represent the averaged metallicities for the planets with Mp ≤ 20 M⊕ and Mp > 20 M⊕. The formation of low-mass planets (Mp ≤ 20 M⊕) is barely dependent on the stellar metallicity, whereas massive planets (Mp > 20 M⊕) prefers to grow in metal-rich systems.
