We use our results, together with the others found in the literature, to study the metallicity-planet correlation, namely for very low mass planets. The results presented here suggests that contrarily to their jovian couterparts, neptune-like planets do not form preferentially around metal-rich stars. The ratio of jupiter-toneptunes is also an increasing function of stellar metallicity. These results are discussed in the context of the core-accretion model for planet formation.4enFormationFundamental parametersPlanetary systems200910.1063/1.309915264849086187
