We review the role of stellar flybys and encounters in shaping planet-forming discs around
young stars, based on the published literature on this topic in the last 30 years. Since most …

In Lammer et al.(2024), we defined Earth-like habitats (EHs) as rocky exoplanets within the
habitable zone of complex life (HZCL) on which Earth-like N2-O2-dominated atmospheres …

Circumstellar discs are the precursors of planetary systems and develop shortly after their
host star has formed. In their early stages, these discs are immersed in an environment rich …

Depending on the stellar densities, protoplanetary discs in stellar clusters undergo:
background heating; disc truncation-driven by stellar encounter; and photoevaporation. Disc …

The Galactic bulge is a tumultuous dense region of space, packed with stars separated by
far smaller distances than those in the Solar neighbourhood. A quantification of the …

ABSTRACT A dynamically relaxed dense cluster comprised of about 40 stars (the so-called
S-stars) inhabits the central region of our Galaxy. Their stars revolve around the Sgr A …

Our solar system is just one of billions in the Milky Way, situated about half way from the
Galaxy's core to its edge, and nestled safely between a pair of spiral arms. Out of those …

To fully understand the diverse population of exoplanets, we must study their early lives
within open clusters, the birthplace of most stars with masses $> 0.5 M_\odot $(including …
