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.

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 require 2000 Earth masses of pebbles to match observed disc gaps, but this produces mostly gas giants and few super-Earths, contradicting exoplanet data.

Are the observed gaps in protoplanetary discs caused by growing planets?
