High-inclination Centaur reservoirs beyond Neptune
Fathi Namouni
(Abridged) Numerical simulations of the past evolution of high-inclination Centaurs showed they originated from orbits beyond Neptune that were perpendicular to the Solar System's…
Orbit injection of planet-crossing asteroids
Fathi Namouni
Solar system Centaurs originate in transneptunian space from where planet orbit crossing events inject their orbits inside the giant planets' domain. Here, we examine this injectio…
Inclination pathways of planet-crossing asteroids
Fathi Namouni
Long-term statistical simulations of the past evolution of high-inclination Centaurs showed that their orbits tend to be polar with respect to the solar system's invariable plane o…
A study of the 1/2 retrograde resonance: Periodic orbits and resonant capture
M. H. M. Morais, F. Namouni, G. Voyatzis +1
We describe the families of periodic orbits in the 2-dimensional 1/2 retrograde resonance at mass ratio 0.001, analyzing their stability and bifurcations into 3-dimensional periodi…
On the interstellar origin of high-inclination Centaurs
Fathi Namouni, Maria Helena Moreira Morais
Following our identification of the probable interstellar origin of high-inclination Centaurs, Morbidelli et al. (2020) issued a rebuttal criticizing our methods and conclusions. H…
Resonance libration and width at arbitrary inclination
Fathi Namouni, Helena Morais
We apply the analytical disturbing function for arbitrary inclination derived in our previous work to characterize resonant width and libration of mean motion resonances at arbitra…
