In the last few years, multiwavelength observations have revealed the ubiquity of gaps/rings in protoplanetary discs, suggesting the presence of planets forming at tens of au. Such a planet population likely migrates inwards to end up in orbits within 10 au. At later stages, however, debris/planetesimal discs analogous to the ...
