The detection and characterization of large populations of pebbles in protoplanetary disks
have motivated the study of pebble accretion as a driver of planetary growth. This review …

The solid content of circumstellar disks is inherited from the interstellar medium: dust
particles of at most a micrometer in size. Protoplanetary disks are the environment where …

Context. The TRAPPIST-1 system hosts seven Earth-sized, temperate exoplanets orbiting an
ultra-cool dwarf star. As such, it represents a remarkable setting to study the formation and …

Abstract The Disk Substructures at High Angular Resolution Project (DSHARP) provides a
large sample of protoplanetary disks with substructures that could be induced by young …

The streaming instability (SI) is a mechanism to aerodynamically concentrate solids in
protoplanetary disks and trigger the formation of planetesimals. The SI produces strong …

There is a long-standing debate regarding the origin of the terrestrial planets' water as well
as the hydrated C-type asteroids. Here we show that the inner Solar System's water is a …

Chondrules are millimeter-sized spherules that dominate primitive meteorites (chondrites)
originating from the asteroid belt. The incorporation of chondrules into asteroidal bodies …

The growth of a planetary core by pebble accretion stops at the so-called pebble isolation
mass, when the core generates a pressure bump that traps drifting pebbles outside its orbit …

The formation of planets depends on the underlying protoplanetary disc structure, which in
turn influences both the accretion and migration rates of embedded planets. The disc itself …

Water and simple organic molecular ices dominate the mass of solid materials available for
planetesimal and planet formation beyond the water snow line. Here we analyze ALMA long …
