Catching a planet: A tidal capture origin for the exomoon candidate Kepler 1625b I [PDF]
The (yet-to-be confirmed) discovery of a Neptune-sized moon around the ~3.2 Jupiter-mass planet in Kepler 1625 puts interesting constraints on the formation of the system.

Recent observations suggest that the first stages of planet formation likely take place in the Class 0/I phase of young stellar object evolution, when the star and the disk are still embedded in an infalling envelope.

The Exoplanet Population Observation Simulator. II -- Population Synthesis in the Era of Kepler [PDF]
The collection of planetary system properties derived from large surveys such as Kepler provides critical constraints on planet formation and evolution.

Thanks to “dust-to-planet” simulations (DTPSs), which treat the collisional evolution directly from dust to giant-planet cores in a protoplanetary disk, we showed that giant-planet cores are formed in ≲10 au in several 10 ^5 yr, because porous pebbles ...

Planet formation around low mass stars: the moving snow line and super-Earths [PDF]
We develop a semi-analytic model for planet formation during the pre-main sequence contraction phase of a low mass star. During this evolution, the stellar magnetosphere maintains a fixed ratio between the inner disk radius and the stellar radius. As the

Planet Formation and Disk-Planet Interactions [PDF]
This review is based on lectures given at the 45th Saas-Fee Advanced Course 'From Protoplanetary Disks to Planet Formation' held in March 2015 in Les Diablerets, Switzerland. Starting with an overview of the main characterictics of the Solar System and extrasolar planets, we describe the planet formation process in terms of the sequential accretion ...

MINDS. The Detection of 13CO2 with JWST-MIRI Indicates Abundant CO2 in a Protoplanetary Disk
We present JWST-MIRI Medium Resolution Spectrometer (MRS) spectra of the protoplanetary disk around the low-mass T Tauri star GW Lup from the MIRI mid-INfrared Disk Survey Guaranteed Time Observations program. Emission from ^12 CO _2 , ^13 CO _2 , H _2 O,

The Role of Multiplicity in Disk Evolution and Planet Formation [PDF]
The past decade has seen a revolution in our understanding of protoplanetary disk evolution and planet formation in single star systems. However, the majority of solar-type stars form in binary systems, so the impact of binary companions on ...
