JWST observations at 15 and 25.5 μm reveal a smooth, radially broad debris disk around γ Ophiuchi extending to 250 au, interpreted as a steady-state collisional cascade from a wide planetesimal belt with possible low-eccentricity planetary perturbation.

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.

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.
