Preliminary constraints on the location of the recently hypothesized new planet of the Solar System from planetary orbital dynamics

Lorenzo Iorio

(Abridged) The trajectory of Saturn is nowadays known at essentially the same accuracy level of the inner planets due to the telemetry of the Cassini spacecraft. Thus, the expected…

Resolving the Extragalactic -ray Background above 50 GeV with Fermi-LAT

LAT Collaboration

The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) Collaboration has recently released a catalog of 360 sources detected above 50 GeV (2FHL). This catalog was obtained using 80 months of data re…

The impact of the orbital decay of the LAGEOS satellites on the frame-dragging tests

Lorenzo Iorio

The laser-tracked geodetic satellites LAGEOS, LAGEOS II and LARES are currently employed, among other things, to measure the general relativistic Lense-Thirring effect in the gravi…

Orbital effects due to gravitational induction

Donato Bini, Lorenzo Iorio, Domenico Giordano

We study the motion of test particles in the metric of a localized and slowly rotating astronomical source, within the framework of linear gravitoelectromagnetism, grounded on a Po…

Search for extended gamma-ray emission from the Virgo galaxy cluster with Fermi-LAT

M. Ackermann, M. Ajello, A. Albert +118

Galaxy clusters are one of the prime sites to search for dark matter (DM) annihilation signals. Depending on the substructure of the DM halo of a galaxy cluster and the cross secti…

Accurate characterization of the stellar and orbital parameters of the exoplanetary system WASP-33 b from orbital dynamics

Lorenzo Iorio

By using the most recently published Doppler tomography measurements and accurate theoretical modeling of the oblateness-driven orbital precessions, we tightly constrain some of th…

Constraining f(T) gravity in the Solar System

Lorenzo Iorio, Ninfa Radicella, Matteo Luca Ruggiero

In the framework of theories of gravity, we solve the field equations for , in the weak-field approximation and for spherical symmetry spacetime. Since $f(T)=…

Does the Newton's gravitational constant vary sinusoidally with time? Orbital motions say no

Lorenzo Iorio

A sinusoidally time-varying pattern of the values of the Newton's constant of gravitation measured in Earth-based laboratories over the latest decades has been recently reporte…
