Close-in giant-planet formation via in-situ gas accretion and their natal disk properties
Yasuhiro Hasegawa, Tze Yeung Mathew Yu, Bradley M. S. Hansen
The origin of close-in Jovian planets is still elusive. We examine the in-situ gas accretion scenario as a formation mechanism of these planets. We reconstruct natal disk propertie…

Trans-Neptunian Objects Transiently Stuck in Neptune's Mean Motion Resonances: Numerical simulations of the current population
Tze Yeung Mathew Yu, Ruth Murray-Clay, Kathryn Volk
A substantial fraction of our solar system's trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) are in mean motion resonance with Neptune. Many of these objects were likely caught into resonances by p…

OSSOS IX: two objects in Neptune's 9:1 resonance -- implications for resonance sticking in the scattering population
Kathryn Volk, Ruth A. Murray-Clay, Brett J. Gladman +12
We discuss the detection in the Outer Solar System Origins Survey (OSSOS) of two objects in Neptune's distant 9:1 mean motion resonance at semimajor axis ~au. Both ob…
