Equilibrium figure of Haumea and possible detection by stellar occultation
C. Staelen, N. Rambaux, F. Chambat +1
The equilibrium figure of dwarf planet Haumea is studied to determine if the observed shape is compatible with a differentiated hydrostatic body. Three groups of interior models of…
Evolutionary Processes in the Centaur Region
Rosita Kokotanekova, Aurélie Guilbert-Lepoutre, Matthew M. Knight +1
Centaurs populate relatively short-lived and rapidly evolving orbits in the giant-planet region and are believed to be one of the solar system's most complex and diverse population…
Solid-liquid phase change in planetary cores
Ludovic Huguet, Quentin Kriaa, Thierry Alboussière +1
The ubiquitous phenomena of crystallization and melting occur in various geophysical contexts across many spatial and temporal scales. In particular, they take place in the iron co…
On the early thermal processing of planetesimals during and after the giant planet instability
A. Gkotsinas, D. Nesvorny, A. Guilbert-Lepoutre +2
Born as ice-rich planetesimals, cometary nuclei were gravitationally scattered onto their current orbits in the Kuiper Belt and the Oort Cloud during the giant planets' dynamical i…
Geomagnetic dipole stability and zonal flows controlled by mantle heat flux heterogeneities
Thomas Frasson, Natanaël Schaeffer, Henri-Claude Nataf +1
This work aims at acquiring a more complete understanding of how lateral heterogeneities of the CMB heat flux affect the geodynamo while other relevant parameters are pushed toward…
The impact of lake shape and size on lake breezes and air-lake exchanges on Titan
Audrey Chatain, Scot C. R. Rafkin, Alejandro Soto +5
Titan, the largest moon of Saturn, has many lakes on its surface, formed mainly of liquid methane. Like water lakes on Earth, these methane lakes on Titan likely profoundly affect…
Remarks on compressible convection in Super-Earths
Yanick Ricard, Thierry Alboussière
The radial density of planets increases with depth due to compressibility, leading to impacts on their convective dynamics. To account for these effects, including the presence of…
How the origin of stars in the Galaxy impacts the composition of planetary building blocks
N. Cabral, A. Guilbert-Lepoutre, B. Bitsch +2
Context. Our Galaxy is composed of different stellar populations with varying chemical abundances, which are thought to imprint the composition of planet building blocks (PBBs). As…
On averaging eccentric orbits: Implications for the long-term thermal evolution of comets
Anastasios Gkotsinas, Aurélie Guilbert-Lepoutre, Sean N. Raymond
One of the common approximations in long-term evolution studies of small bodies is the use of circular orbits averaging the actual eccentric ones, facilitating the coupling of proc…
The gateway from Centaurs to Jupiter-family Comets: thermal and dynamical evolution
Aurélie Guilbert-Lepoutre, Anastasios Gkotsinas, Sean N. Raymond +1
It was recently proposed that there exists a "gateway" in the orbital parameter space through which Centaurs transition to Jupiter-family Comets (JFCs). Further studies have implie…
Evolution of pits at the surface of 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
Selma Benseguane, Aurélie Guilbert-Lepoutre, Jérémie Lasue +6
The observation of pits at the surface of comets offers the opportunity to take a glimpse into the properties and the mechanisms that shape a nucleus through cometary activity. If…
On the Slow Drift of Solstices: Milankovic Cycles and Mean Global Temperature
F. Lopes, V. Courtillot, D. Gibert +1
The Earth's revolution is modified by changes in inclination of its rotation axis. Despite the fact that the gravity field is central, the Earth's trajectory is not closed and the…
Martian meteorites reflectance and implications for rover missions
Lucia Mandon, Pierre Beck, Cathy Quantin-Nataf +7
In the next decade, two rovers will characterize in situ the mineralogy of rocks on Mars, using for the first time near-infrared reflectance spectrometers: SuperCam onboard the Mar…
Thermal processing of Jupiter Family Comets during their chaotic orbital evolution
Anastasios Gkotsinas, Aurélie Guilbert-Lepoutre, Sean N. Raymond +1
Evidence for cometary activity beyond Jupiter and Saturn's orbits -- such as that observed for Centaurs and long period comets -- suggests that the thermal processing of comet nucl…
A molecular wind blows out of the Kuiper belt
Quentin Kral, J. E. Pringle, Aurélie Guilbert-Lepoutre +9
Gas has been detected in many exoplanetary systems (10 Myr), thought to be released in the destruction of volatile-rich planetesimals orbiting in exo-Kuiper belts. In this lette…
Metallization of Shock-Compressed Liquid Ammonia
A. Ravasio, M. Bethkenhagen, J. -A. Hernandez +8
Ammonia is predicted to be one of the major components in the depths of the ice giant planets Uranus and Neptune. Their dynamics, evolution, and interior structure are insufficient…
Iron Mobility During Diagenesis at Vera Rubin Ridge, Gale Crater, Mars
J l'Haridon, N Mangold, A Fraeman +18
The Curiosity rover investigated a topographic structure known as Vera Rubin ridge, associated with a hematite signature in orbital spectra. There, Curiosity encountered mudstones…
Benchmarking the ab initio hydrogen equations of state for the interior structure of Jupiter
S. Mazevet, A. Licari, F. Soubiran
As Juno is presently measuring Jupiter's gravitational moments to unprecedented accuracy, models for the interior structure of the planet are putted to the test. While equations of…
Voluminous silica precipitated from martian waters during late-stage aqueous alteration
L. Pan, J. Carter, C. Quantin-Nataf +6
Mars' transition from an early "warm and wet" to the "cold and dry" environment left fingerprints on the geological record of fluvial activity on Mars. The morphological and minera…
MUSE observations of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko: A reference for future comet observations with MUSE
C. Opitom, A. Guilbert-Lepoutre, S. Besse +2
Observations of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko were performed with MUSE at large heliocentric distances post-perihelion, between March 3 and 7, 2016. Those observations were part…
Interstellar comet 2I/Borisov as seen by MUSE: C, NH and red CN detections
Michele T. Bannister, Cyrielle Opitom, Alan Fitzsimmons +11
We report the clear detection of C and of abundant NH in the first prominently active interstellar comet, 2I/Borisov. We observed 2I on three nights in November 2019 at opt…
Size and density sorting of dust grains in SPH simulations of protoplanetary disc II: Fragmentation
Francesco C. Pignatale, Jean-François Gonzalez, Bernard Bourdon +1
Grain growth and fragmentation are important processes in building up large dust aggregates in protoplanetary discs. Using a 3D two-phase (gas-dust) SPH code, we investigate the co…
The Natural History of 'Oumuamua
Oumuamua ISSI Team
