Indicator of Exo-Solar Planet(s) in the Circumstellar Disk Around Beta Pictoris
Nick Gorkavyi, Sara Heap, Leonid Ozernoy +2
Our efficient numerical approach has been applied to modeling the asymmetric circumstellar dust disk around Beta Pictoris as observed with the HST/STIS. We present a new model on t…
Resonant Gaps in the Scattered Cometary Population of the Trans-Neptunian Region
Tanya Taidakova, Leonid M. Ozernoy, Nick N. Gorkavyi
Our numerical simulations of the Edgeworth-Kuiper belt objects gravitationally scattered by the four giant planets accounting for mean motion resonances reveal numerous resonant ga…
Distribution of dust from Kuiper belt objects
Nick N. Gorkavyi, Leonid M. Ozernoy, Tanya Taidakova +1
(Abridged) Using an efficient computational approach, we have reconstructed the structure of the dust cloud in the Solar system between 0.5 and 100 AU produced by the Kuiper belt o…
Orbital Motion of Resonant Clumps in Dusty Circumstellar Disks as a Signature of an Embedded Planet
Nick N. Gorkavyi, Leonid M. Ozernoy, John C. Mather +1
We have applied a powerful numerical approach to compute, with a high resolution, the structure of dusty circumstellar disks with embedded planets. We emphasize some testable impli…
