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 …

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 …

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 …

Geochemical and astronomical evidence demonstrates that planet formation occurred in two
spatially and temporally separated reservoirs. The origin of this dichotomy is unknown. We …

The composition of a planet's atmosphere is determined by its formation, evolution, and
present-day insolation. A planet's spectrum therefore may hold clues on its origins. We …

We provide a brief review of many aspects of the planetary physics of hot Jupiters. Our aim is
to cover most of the major areas of current study while providing the reader with additional …

Recent observations of extrasolar gas giants suggest super-stellar C/O ratios in planetary
atmospheres, while interior models of observed extrasolar giant planets additionally suggest …

Discs of gas and dust around million-year-old stars are a by-product of the star formation
process and provide the raw material to form planets. Hence, their evolution and dispersal …

Context. The explosion of observational data on exoplanets gives many constraints on
theoretical models of planet formation and evolution. Observational data probe very large …
