Our understanding of planet formation has been rapidly evolving in recent years. The
classical planet formation theory, developed when the only known planetary system was our …

Meteorites, and in particular primitive meteorites (chondrites), are irreplaceable probes of
the solar protoplanetary disk. We review their essential properties and endeavour to place …

Context. In the core accretion scenario of planet formation, rocky cores grow by first
accreting solids until they are massive enough to accrete gas. For giant planet formation, this …

Context. Pebble accretion is an emerging paradigm for the fast growth of planetary cores.
Pebble flux and pebble sizes are the key parameters used in the pebble accretion models …

The similar orbital distances and detection rates of debris disks and the prominent rings
observed in protoplanetary disks suggest a potential connection between these structures …

Jupiter's atmosphere is enriched with heavy elements by a factor of about 3 compared to a
protosolar composition. The origin of this enrichment and whether it represents the bulk …

The dust production in debris discs by grinding collisions of planetesimals requires their
orbits to be stirred. However, stirring levels remain largely unconstrained, and consequently …

The question of what determines the width of Kuiper belt analogues (exoKuiper belts) is an
open one. If solved, this understanding would provide valuable insights into the architecture …

The presence of rings and gaps in protoplanetary disks are often ascribed to planet–disk
interactions, where dust and pebbles are trapped at the edges of planetary-induced gas …

Protoplanetary discs exhibit a diversity of gaps and rings of dust material, believed to be a
manifestation of pressure maxima commonly associated with an ongoing planet formation …
