Instantaneous thermally-driven erosion can explain dearth of dark near-Sun asteroids
Georgios Tsirvoulis, Mikael Granvik, Leonard Schirner +3
Recent models of the near-Earth asteroid population show that asteroids must be super-catastrophically destroyed when they evolve to orbits with perihelion passages well inside of…
SHINeS: Space and High-Irradiance Near-Sun Simulator
Georgios Tsirvoulis, Mikael Granvik, Athanasia Toliou
We present SHINeS, a space simulator which can be used to replicate the thermal environment in the immediate neighborhood of the Sun down to a heliocentric distance r~0.06 au. The…
Minimum perihelion distances and associated dwell times for near-Earth asteroids
Athanasia Toliou, Mikael Granvik, Georgios Tsirvoulis
The observed near-Earth asteroid population contains very few objects with small perihelion distances, say, q<=0.2 au. NEAs that currently have orbits with larger q might be hiding…
Secular resonance sweeping and orbital excitation in decaying disks
A. Toliou, K. Tsiganis, G. Tsirvoulis
We revisit the problem of secular resonance sweeping during the dissipation of a protoplanetary disk and its possible role in exciting the orbits of primordial asteroids, in the li…
