Scattering cold Jupiters disrupt inner mean-motion resonances via secular perturbations from their orbital history, driving resonance circulation in most 2:1 and 3:2 configurations and explaining the Kepler period ratio distribution.

First obliquity measurement in an M dwarf binary shows alignment, with tentative evidence that aligned orbits around cool stars and wide separations also hold for brown dwarfs and binaries.
A new wide-binary coordinate system in REBOUND's TRACE integrator produces qualitatively correct results for planet-planet scattering, stellar flybys, and ZLK oscillations where prior hybrid integrators fail, while matching IAS15 accuracy at up to 9x speed.
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.
TOI-1710 b has a true obliquity of 149 degrees indicating retrograde motion, favoring high-eccentricity migration via planet-planet scattering and Kozai-Lidov cycles for this tidally detached super-Neptune.
A transit search on TESS Cycle 1 full-frame images produced 10,091 new planet candidates down to T=16 mag, more than doubling the known TESS total, with one hot Jupiter confirmed by radial velocity.
Archival RV and astrometric data plus three-body simulations constrain an unseen outer perturber in the GJ 436 system to sub-Jovian masses at a_c ≳ 6.8 AU, supporting Kozai-Lidov migration as the source of the hot Neptune's polar eccentric orbit.
Tentative evidence for a super-Jupiter at 15-100 AU or brown dwarf at 20-170 AU in 51 Pegasi from RV curvature, but the signal is likely driven by Lick/Hamilton instrument drift.
TOI-159 b is confirmed as the hottest known eccentric hot Jupiter (e = 0.24) with a 13-sigma Keplerian detection around a young gamma Doradus star, including a preliminary low-resolution transmission spectrum.
Giant planet multiplicity is low, with 10.6% and 15.8% of Sun-like stars hosting at least one giant planet within 10 au across the two surveys, mostly as singles, inconsistent with scattering models.

Planetesimal-Driven Instabilities in Resonant Chains of Cold Neptunes and Their Dynamical Outcomes
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.
