Extreme debris disks are a distinct subclass produced by large (Moon- to Mars-sized) collisions, with silica-rich mineralogy tracing energetic embryo impacts during terrestrial planet formation and high-W10 silica-poor systems marking later dynamical instability.
Planetesimal disks with 1-4% of the planetary mass disrupt resonant Neptune chains, triggering instabilities that scatter planets to ~0.1 au orbits and enable hot Neptune formation on 10-100 Myr timescales.
Simulations indicate EKL interactions excite TTV phases and disrupt resonances in a significant fraction of near-resonant super-Earth systems over 16 Myr.
Stellar spindown cannot trigger secular resonance crossings in regular peas-in-a-pod systems, requiring inner-planet migration instead, and resonance crossing times vary across stellar evolution tracks.

Peas and USPs: Can Stellar Spindown and Peas in a Pod Replicate Ultra-Short-Period Planet Characteristics?
Stellar spindown cannot trigger secular resonance crossings in regular peas-in-a-pod systems, requiring inner-planet migration instead, and resonance crossing times vary across stellar evolution tracks.
