Discovery and dynamics of a Sedna-like object with a perihelion of 66 au

Ying-Tung Chen, Patryk Sofia Lykawka, Yukun Huang +30

Trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) with large perihelion distances ( au) and semi-major axes ( au) provide insights into the early evolution of the solar system and th…

The Surfaces of Small to Mid-Size Plutinos: Evidence of an Association Between Inclination and Surface Type

Cameron Collyer, Rosemary E. Pike, Ying-Tung Chen +6

Being one of the most populated mean motion resonances (MMR) with Neptune and lying close to the inner boundary of the present day cold classical disk, observations of the orbital…

A study of the high-inclination population in the Kuiper belt -- IV. High-order mean motion resonances in the classical region

Jian Li, S. M. Lawler, Hanlun Lei

In our previous study of Neptune's 4:7 mean motion resonance (MMR), we discovered that its resonant angle can only librate within a specific eccentricity () versus inclination (…

OSSOS: XXVII. Population Estimates for Theoretically Stable Centaurs Between Uranus and Neptune

Rosemary C. Dorsey, Michele T. Bannister, Samantha M. Lawler +1

We calculate the upper bounds of the population of theoretically stable Centaur orbits between Uranus and Neptune. These small bodies are on low-eccentricity, low-inclination orbit…

The Case for Space Environmentalism

A. Lawrence, M. L. Rawls, M. Jah +8

The shell bound by the Karman line at a height of 80 to 100km above the Earth's surface, and Geosynchronous Orbit, at 36,000km, is defined as the orbital space surrounding the Eart…

Investigating the stability of mass transfer in neutron star-helium white dwarf binaries

Hai-Liang Chen, Thomas M. Tauris, Xuefei Chen +1

Neutron star-helium white dwarf (NS+He WD) binaries are important evolutionary products of close-orbit binary star systems. They are often observed as millisecond pulsars and may c…
