Description
Neptune-mass planets are among the most common outcomes of planet formation, yet their long-term dynamical evolution remains poorly understood. In this talk, I examine how dynamical instabilities among cold Neptunes can disrupt resonant architectures, reshape compact inner planetary systems, drive the formation of hot Neptunes, and generate populations of wide-orbit and free-floating planets.
