On the Orbital Evolution of Giant Planet Pair Embedded in a Gaseous Disk. III. simultaneous gas accretion and the final mass ratio

Recent exoplanet surveys reveal a systematic trend in the mass ratios of giant planet pairs ($>30 M_\oplus$). Although the $M_{outer}/M_{inner}$ is broadly centered near unity, it exhibits a dependence on orbital separation. Compact pairs tend to have comparable masses, whereas widely separated pairs show outer-heavy c...
