The Contribution of Dwarf Planets to the Origin of Jupiter Family Comets
Marco A. Muñoz-Gutiérrez, Antonio Peimbert, Bárbara Pichardo +2
We explore the long-term evolution of a bias-free orbital representation of the cometary nuclei (with diameters above 2 km) of the Kuiper belt, using the so-called L7 synthetic mod…
First Results from the rapid-response spectrophotometric characterization of Near-Earth Objects
Samuel Navarro-Meza, Michael Mommert, David Trilling +6
As part of our multi-observatory, multi-filter campaign, we present \rmi color observations of 82 Near-Earth Objects (NEOs) obtained with the RATIR instrument on the 1.5m robotic t…
The Contribution of Dwarf Planets to the Origin of Low Inclination Comets by the Replenishment of Mean Motion Resonances in Debris Disks
Marco A. Muñoz-Gutiérrez, Antonio Peimbert, Bárbara Pichardo
In this work we explore a new dynamical path for the delivery of low-inclination comets. In a configuration formed by an interior giant planet and an exterior massive debris disk,…
Giant Planets Can Act As Stabilizing Agents on Debris Disks
Marco A. Muñoz-Gutiérrez, Bárbara Pichardo, Antonio Peimbert
We have explored the evolution of a cold debris disk under the gravitational influence of dwarf planet sized objects (DPs), both in the presence and absence of an interior giant pl…
First Results from the Rapid-Response Spectrophotometric Characterization of Near-Earth Objects using UKIRT
M. Mommert, D. E. Trilling, D. Borth +7
Using the Wide Field Camera for the United Kingdom Infrared Telescope, we measure the near-infrared colors of near-Earth objects (NEOs) in order to put constraints on their taxonom…
Habitability in Different Milky Way Stellar Environments: a Stellar Interaction Dynamical Approach
Juan J. Jiménez-Torres, Bárbara Pichardo, George Lake +1
Every Galactic environment is characterized by a stellar density and a velocity dispersion. With this information from literature, we simulated flyby encounters for several Galacti…
Regions of Dynamical Stability for Discs and Planets in Binary Stars of the Solar Neighborhood
Luisa G. Jaime, Barbara Pichardo, Luis Aguilar
Using the results of Pichardo \et (2005,2008), we determine regions of dynamical stability where planets (or discs in general) could survive in stable orbits around binary stellar…
Effect of Different Stellar Galactic Environments on Planetary Discs I: The Solar Neighbourhood and the Birth Cloud of the Sun
Juan J. Jimenez-Torres, Barbara Pichardo, George Lake +1
We have computed trajectories, distances and times of closest approaches to the Sun by stars in the Solar neighbourhood with known position, radial velocity and proper motions. For…
