The exoplanetary systems discovered so far (3212 systems with a total of 4331 exoplanets, as reported by https://exoplanets.nasa.gov/ on January 21st 2021) show a great variety of systems architecture, with some configurations which are completely different than that of our Solar System. This variety of architectures is a challenge for studies of the planetary formation process and all mechanisms that contribute in

The final architecture of a planetary system is the result of a complex interplay between several processes, such as the dispersion of the protoplanetary disk from which the planetary system formed, and the gravitational interaction between the newborn planets. Besides, these processes can be affected by the environment and by their central star. One of the most important process dictating
