Transition discs are expected to be a natural outcome of the interplay between photoevaporation (PE) and giant planet formation. Massive planets reduce the inflow of material from the outer to the inner disc, therefore triggering an earlier onset of disc dispersal due to PE through a process known as Planet-Induced PhotoEvaporation (PIPE). In this case, a cavity is formed as material inside the planetary orbit is removed by PE, leaving only the outer disc to drive the migration of the giant planet. We investigate the impact of PE on giant planet migration and focus specifically on the case of transition discs with an evacuated cavity inside the planet location. This is important for determining under what circumstances PE is efficient at halting the migration of giant planets, thus affecting the final orbital distribution of a population of planets. For this purpose, we use 2D FARGO simulations to model the migration of giant planets in a range of primordial and transition discs subject to PE. The results are then compared to the standard prescriptions used to calculate the migration tracks of planets in 1D planet population synthesis models. The FARGO simulations show that once the disc inside the planet location is depleted of gas, planet migration ceases. This contradicts the results obtained by the impulse approximation, which predicts the accelerated inward migration of planets in discs that have been cleared inside the planetary orbit. These results suggest that the impulse approximation may not be suitable for planets embedded in transition discs. A better approximation that could be used in 1D models would involve halting planet migration once the material inside the planetary orbit is depleted of gas and the surface density at the 3:2 mean motion resonance location in the outer disc reaches a threshold value of $0.01,mathrm{g,cm^{-2}}$.

One possible explanation of the cavity in debris discs is the gravitational perturbation of an embedded giant planet. Planetesimals passing close to a massive body are dynamically stirred resulting in a cleared region known as the chaotic zone. Theor y of overlapping mean-motion resonances predicts the width of this cavity. To test whether this cavity is identical to the chaotic zone, we investigate the formation of cavities by means of collisionless N-body simulations assuming a 1.25-10 Jupiter mass planet with eccentricities of 0-0.9. Synthetic images at millimetre wavelengths are calculated to determine the cavity properties by fitting an ellipse to 14 percent contour level. Depending on the planetary eccentricity, e_pl, the elliptic cavity wall rotates as the planet orbits with the same (e_pl<0.2) or half (e_pl>0.2) period that of the planet. The cavity centre is offset from the star along the semi-major axis of the planet with a distance of d=0.1q^-0.17e_pl^0.5 in units of cavity size towards the planets orbital apocentre, where q is the planet-to-star mass ratio. Pericentre (apocentre) glow develops for e_pl<0.05 (e_pl>0.1), while both are present for 0.05<=e_pl<=0.1. Empirical formulae are derived for the sizes of the cavities: da_cav=2.35q^0.36 and da_cav=7.87q^0.37e_pl^0.38 for e_pl<=0.05 and e_pl>0.05, respectively. The cavity eccentricity, e_cav, equals to that of the planet only for 0.3<=e_pl<=0.6. A new method based on ALMA observations for estimating the orbital parameters and mass of the planet carving the cavity is also given.
We present a new velocity-resolved survey of 2.9 $mu$m spectra of hot H$_2$O and OH gas emission from protoplanetary disks, obtained with CRIRES at the VLT ($Delta v sim$ 3 km s$^{-1}$). With the addition of archival Spitzer-IRS spectra, this is the most comprehensive spectral dataset of water vapor emission from disks ever assembled. We provide line fluxes at 2.9-33 $mu$m that probe from disk radii of $sim0.05$ au out to the region across the water snow line. With a combined dataset for 55 disks, we find a new correlation between H$_2$O line fluxes and the radius of CO gas emission as measured in velocity-resolved 4.7 $mu$m spectra (R$_{rm co}$), which probes molecular gaps in inner disks. We find that H$_2$O emission disappears from 2.9 $mu$m (hotter water) to 33 $mu$m (colder water) as R$_{rm co}$ increases and expands out to the snow line radius. These results suggest that the infrared water spectrum is a tracer of inside-out water depletion within the snow line. It also helps clarifying an unsolved discrepancy between water observations and models, by finding that disks around stars of M$_{star}>1.5$ M$_odot$ generally have inner gaps with depleted molecular gas content. We measure radial trends in H$_2$O, OH, and CO line fluxes that can be used as benchmarks for models to study the chemical composition and evolution of planet-forming disk regions at 0.05-20 au. We propose that JWST spectroscopy of molecular gas may be used as a probe of inner disk gas depletion, complementary to the larger gaps and holes detected by direct imaging and by ALMA.
During the process of planet formation, the planet-discs interactions might excite (or damp) the orbital eccentricity of the planet. In this paper, we present two long ($tsim 3times 10^5$ orbits) numerical simulations: (a) one (with a relatively ligh t disc, $M_{rm d}/M_{rm p}=0.2$) where the eccentricity initially stalls before growing at later times and (b) one (with a more massive disc, $M_{rm d}/M_{rm p}=0.65$) with fast growth and a late decrease of the eccentricity. We recover the well-known result that a more massive disc promotes a faster initial growth of the planet eccentricity. However, at late times the planet eccentricity decreases in the massive disc case, but increases in the light disc case. Both simulations show periodic eccentricity oscillations superimposed on a growing/decreasing trend and a rapid transition between fast and slow pericentre precession. The peculiar and contrasting evolution of the eccentricity of both planet and disc in the two simulations can be understood by invoking a simple toy model where the disc is treated as a second point-like gravitating body, subject to secular planet-planet interaction and eccentricity pumping/damping provided by the disc. We show how the counterintuitive result that the more massive simulation produces a lower planet eccentricity at late times can be understood in terms of the different ratios of the disc-to-planet angular momentum in the two simulations. In our interpretation, at late times the planet eccentricity can increase more in low-mass discs rather than in high-mass discs, contrary to previous claims in the literature.
The discovery of planetary systems outside of the solar system has challenged some of the tenets of planetary formation. Among the difficult-to-explain observations, are systems with a giant planet orbiting a very-low mass star, such as the recently discovered GJ~3512b planetary system, where a Jupiter-like planet orbits an $M$-star in a tight and eccentric orbit. Systems such as this one are not predicted by the core accretion theory of planet formation. Here we suggest a novel mechanism, in which the giant planet is born around a more typical Sun-like star ($M_{*,1}$), but is subsequently exchanged during a dynamical interaction with a flyby low-mass star ($M_{*,2}$). We perform state-of-the-art $N$-body simulations with $M_{*,1}=1M_odot$ and $M_{*,2}=0.1M_odot$ to study the statistical outcomes of this interaction, and show that exchanges result in high eccentricities for the new orbit around the low-mass star, while about half of the outcomes result in tighter orbits than the planet had around its birth star. We numerically compute the cross section for planet exchange, and show that an upper limit for the probability per planetary system to have undergone such an event is $Gammasim 4.4(M_{rm c}/100M_odot)^{-2}(a_{rm p}/{rm AU}) (sigma/1,{rm km},{rm s}^{-1})^{5}$Gyr$^{-1}$, where $a_{rm p}$ is the planet semi-major axis around the birth star, $sigma$ the velocity dispersion of the star cluster, and $M_{rm c}$ the total mass of the star cluster. Hence these planet exchanges could be relatively common for stars born in open clusters and groups, should already be observed in the exoplanet database, and provide new avenues to create unexpected planetary architectures.
We observed the K7 class III star NO Lup in an ALMA survey of the 1-3 Myr Lupus association and detected circumstellar dust and CO gas. Here we show that the J = 3-2 CO emission is both spectrally and spatially resolved, with a broad velocity width $ {sim}19$kms$^{-1}$ for its resolved size ${sim}1$ (${sim}130$ au). We model the gas emission as a Keplerian disc, finding consistency, but only with a central mass of ${sim}11M_{odot}$, which is implausible given its spectral type and X-Shooter spectrum. A good fit to the data can also be found by modelling the CO emission as outflowing gas with a radial velocity ${sim}22$kms$^{-1}$. We interpret NO Lups CO emission as the first imaged class III circumstellar disc with outflowing gas. We conclude that the CO is continually replenished, but cannot say if this is from the break-up of icy planetesimals or from the last remnants of the protoplanetary disc. We suggest further work to explore the origin of this CO, and its higher than expected velocity in comparison to photoevaporative models.
