On the Long-Term Orbital Behaviour of Hilda Asteroids - I. Global Stability Patterns and Catalogue

Cristian F. Chavez, Jonathan Horner, Patryk Sofia Lykawka +2

The Hildas are objects trapped in 3:2 mean-motion resonance (MMR) with Jupiter, and are a fascinating window into the Solar system's formation and evolution. We present the results…

The Search for the Inbetweeners: How packed are TESS planetary systems?

Jonathan Horner, Robert A. Wittenmyer, Stephen R. Kane +1

In this work, we examine seven systems discovered by TESS, to see whether there is any room in those systems for an additional planet (or several) to lurk unseen between the two pl…

HD 83443c: A highly eccentric giant planet on a 22-year orbit

Adriana Errico, Robert A. Wittenmyer, Jonathan Horner +19

We report the discovery of a highly eccentric long-period Jovian planet orbiting the hot-Jupiter host HD\,83443. By combining radial velocity data from four instruments (AAT/UCLES,…

The science case for spacecraft exploration of the Uranian satellites: Candidate ocean worlds in an ice giant system

Richard J. Cartwright, Chloe B. Beddingfield, Tom A. Nordheim +15

The 27 satellites of Uranus are enigmatic, with dark surfaces coated by material that could be rich in organics. Voyager 2 imaged the southern hemispheres of Uranus' five largest '…

Astrocladistics of the Jovian Trojan Swarms

Timothy R. Holt, Jonathan Horner, David Nesvorný +4

The Jovian Trojans are two swarms of small objects that share Jupiter's orbit, clustered around the leading and trailing Lagrange points, L and L. In this work, we investig…

Captured Small Solar System Bodies in the Ice Giant Region

Timothy R. Holt, Bonnie Buratti, Julie Castillo-Rogez +14

This white paper advocates for the inclusion of small, captured Outer Solar system objects, found in the Ice Giant region in the next Decadal Survey. These objects include the Troj…

A pair of Jovian Trojans at the L4 Lagrange point

Timothy R. Holt, David Vokrouhlický, David Nesvorný +2

Asteroid pairs, two objects that are not gravitationally bound to one another, but share a common origin, have been discovered in the Main belt and Hungaria populations. Such pairs…
