The fates of planetary systems provide unassailable insights into their formation and represent rich cross-disciplinary dynamical laboratories. Mounting observations of post-main-sequence planetary systems necessitate a complementary level of theoretical scrutiny. Here, I review the diverse dynamical processes which affect planets, asteroids, comets and pebbles as their parent stars evolve into giant branch, white dwarf and neutron stars. This reference provides a foundation for the interpretation and modelling of currently known systems and upcoming discoveries.

  1. Magnetically guided accretion and extremely slow rotation in a metal-enriched white dwarf

    astro-ph.SR 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0

    WD 1532+129 rotates once every ~289 days — the slowest directly measured spin of any white dwarf — and its accreted metals sit in patches at both magnetic poles.

  2. Dynamical constraints on planet engulfment as the origin of lithium enhancement in TOI-5882

    astro-ph.EP 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.5

    In 300 MESA+REBOUND runs of TOI-5882, planet engulfment is the most common outcome, yet only ~5% fall inside the Li-detectable subgiant window, so recent engulfment remains viable but non-generic under the explored setups.
