Diffuse low-mass stars and brown dwarfs coexist with condensed solar-type stars in the embedded stage of a developing open cluster. It is shown by smoothed-particle-hydrodynamics modelling that interactions between stars and protostars leads to disruption of the protostar to form protoplanets that can then be captured by the star.
