32. The spectrum of HR 8799, a classic Lambda Bootes star, shows substantial depletion of some elements. However, its peculiar abundances have been attributed to its extremely shallow photosphere and reaccretion of gas depleted in refractory elements - possibly associated with planet formation (39) - so we assume here that the planets formed from solar-abundance material.
