Dynamical formation of long-period exoplanets systems in evolving binary stars

Isabel J. Lima, Rafael R. Sousa, Silvia M. Giuliatti Winter +4

The dynamical formation and evolution of long-period giant exoplanets have not been well constrained due to the few observational parameters. In this study, we explore the dynamica…

The resilience of the sailboat stable region

Rafael Sfair, Tiago F. L. L. Pinheiro, Giovana Ramon +1

Binary systems host complex orbital dynamics where test particles can occupy stable regions despite strong gravitational perturbations. The sailboat region, discovered in the Pluto…

Dynamical evidence for an early giant planet instability

Rafael Ribeiro de Sousa, Alessandro Morbidelli, Sean N. Raymond +3

The dynamical structure of the Solar System can be explained by a period of orbital instability experienced by the giant planets. While a late instability was originally proposed t…

Dynamical effects on the classical Kuiper Belt during the excited-Neptune model

Rafael Ribeiro de Sousa, Rodney Gomes, Alessandro Morbidelli +1

The link between the dynamical evolution of the giant planets and the Kuiper Belt orbital structure can provide clues and insight about the dynamical history of the Solar System. T…

Growth and evolution of satellites in a Jovian massive disc

Ricardo A Moraes, Wilhelm Kley, Ernesto Vieira Neto

The formation of satellite systems in circum-planetary discs is considered to be similar to the formation of rocky planets in a proto-planetary disc, especially Super-Earths. Thus,…
