Instabilities in the Early Solar System due to a Self-gravitating Disk
Billy Quarles, Nathan Kaib
Modern studies of the early solar system routinely invoke the possibility of an orbital instability among the giant planets triggered by gravitational interactions between the plan…
The early instability scenario: terrestrial planet formation during the giant planet instability, and the effect of collisional fragmentation
Matthew S. Clement, Nathan A. Kaib, Sean N. Raymond +2
The solar system's dynamical state can be explained by an orbital instability among the giant planets. A recent model has proposed that the giant planet instability happened during…
Excitation and depletion of the asteroid belt in the early instability scenario
Matthew S. Clement, Sean N. Raymond, Nathan A. Kaib
Containing only a few percent the mass of the moon, the current asteroid belt is around three to four orders of magnitude smaller that its primordial mass inferred from disk models…
A New High Perihelion Inner Oort Cloud Object: 2015 TG387
Scott Sheppard, Chadwick Trujillo, David Tholen +1
Inner Oort Cloud objects (IOCs) are Trans-Plutonian for their entire orbits. They are beyond the strong gravitational influences of the known planets yet close enough to the Sun th…
OSSOS: XIII. Fossilized Resonant Dropouts Tentatively Confirm Neptune's Migration was Grainy and Slow
S. M. Lawler, R. E. Pike, N. Kaib +8
The migration of Neptune's resonances through the proto-Kuiper belt has been imprinted in the distribution of small bodies in the outer Solar System. Here we analyze five published…
OSSOS. VII. 800+ trans-Neptunian objects - the complete data release
Michele T. Bannister, Brett J. Gladman, J. J. Kavelaars +33
The Outer Solar System Origins Survey (OSSOS), a wide-field imaging program in 2013-2017 with the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope, surveyed 155 deg of sky to depths of $m_r =…
