The destruction of inner planetary systems during high-eccentricity migration of gas giants
read the original abstract
Hot Jupiters are giant planets on orbits a few hundredths of an AU. They do not share their system with low-mass close-in planets, despite these latter being exceedingly common. Two migration channels for hot Jupiters have been proposed: through a protoplanetary gas disc or by tidal circularisation of highly-eccentric planets. We show that highly-eccentric giant planets that will become hot Jupiters clear out any low-mass inner planets in the system, explaining the observed lack of such companions to hot Jupiters. A less common outcome of the interaction is that the giant planet is ejected by the inner planets. Furthermore, the interaction can implant giant planets on moderately-high eccentricities at semimajor axes $<1$ AU, a region otherwise hard to populate. Our work supports the hypothesis that most hot Jupiters reached their current orbits following a phase of high eccentricity, possibly excited by other planetary or stellar companions.

The 35-Myr old infant planet TOI-837 b has a mildly misaligned orbit
TOI-837 b has a true obliquity of 25.9+7.5-6.3 deg, the first planet younger than 100 Myr with accessible ψ incompatible with an aligned orbit, favoring primordial disc torque followed by disc-driven migration.

Planet-Planet Secular Migration Predicts a Stellar Obliquity-Period Anti-Correlation
Simulations show that von Zeipel-Lidov-Kozai migration from inclined companions produces misaligned short-period hot Jupiters while coplanar high-eccentricity migration preserves alignment at longer periods.

The GAPS programme at TNG ?. TOI-1533: a compact system hosting a super-Neptune-mass pair with disparate radii
TOI-1533 hosts an inner sub-Neptune (P=3.63 d, R=3.15 R⊕) and outer super-Neptune-mass hot giant (P=8.06 d, R>7.5 R⊕, M≈40 M⊕, ρ<0.48 g cm⁻³) both transiting an active K-dwarf.
