Planet-forming disc evolution is not independent of the star formation and feedback process
in giant molecular clouds. In particular, OB stars emit UV radiation that heats and disperses …

Most stars and thus most planetary systems do not form in isolation. The larger star-forming
environment affects protoplanetary disks in multiple ways: Gravitational interactions with …

We present a new fried grid of mass-loss rates for externally far-ultraviolet (FUV) irradiated
protoplanetary discs. As a precursor to the new grid, we also explore the microphysics of …

We demonstrate that planet formation via pebble accretion is sensitive to external
photoevaporation of the outer disc. In pebble accretion, planets grow by accreting from a flux …

Aims. We want to find the distribution of initial conditions that best reproduces disc
observations at the population level. Methods. We first ran a parameter study using a 1D …

We study the evolution and final dispersal of protoplanetary discs that evolve under the
action of internal and external photoevaporation, and different degrees of viscous transport …

Protoplanetary discs spend their lives in the dense environment of a star-forming region.
While there, they can be affected by nearby stars through external photoevaporation and …

We present a detailed analysis of the protostellar outflow activity in the massive star-forming
region NGC 3324, as revealed by new Early Release Observations (EROs) from the James …

The formation of gas giant planets must occur during the first few Myr of a star's lifetime,
when the protoplanetary disc still contains sufficient gas to be accreted on to the planetary …

The stellar cluster environment is expected to play a central role in the evolution of
circumstellar disks. We use thermochemical modeling to constrain the dust and gas masses …
