Distant TNO Inclinations as a Constraint on Primordial Cluster Perturbations in the Presence of Planet Nine

Avni Bansal, Ian Brunton, Konstantin Batygin +2

The Sun was almost certainly born in a stellar cluster, implying some degree of external forcing from neighboring stars during the Solar System's infancy. Published estimates of th…

A distant brown dwarf coplanar to a warm Jupiter and a hot super-Earth

Matías I. Jones, Luca Naponiello, Trifon Trifonov +21

In transiting planetary systems, in which planetary sizes are accurately determined from transit observations, the presence of transit-timing variations (TTVs), especially when com…

Timescales diagnostics for saving viscous and MHD-driven dusty discs from external photoevaporation

Gabriele Pichierri, Giovanni Rosotti, Rossella Anania +1

The evolution of protoplanetary discs is a function of their internal processes and of their environment. It is unclear if angular momentum is mainly removed viscously or by magnet…

On inertial forces (indirect terms) in problems with a central body

Aurélien Crida, Clément Baruteau, Philippine Griveaud +14

Gravitational systems in astrophysics often comprise a body -- the primary -- that far outweights the others, and which is taken as the centre of the reference frame. A fictitious…

Measuring the degree of clustering and diffusion of trans-Neptunian objects

Gabriele Pichierri, Konstantin Batygin

The outer solar system is populated by a broad aggregate of minor bodies, which occupy orbits whose dynamical character ranges from long-term stable to rapidly diffusive. We invest…

Forming the Trappist-1 system in two steps during the recession of the disc inner edge

Gabriele Pichierri, Alessandro Morbidelli, Konstantin Batygin +1

Trappist-1 hosts 7 planets where period ratios of neighbouring pairs are close to the 8:5, 5:3, 3:2, 3:2, 4:3, and 3:2 ratios in increasing distance from the star. The Laplace angl…
