The Canada-France Ecliptic Plane Survey (CFEPS) - High Latitude Component
J-M. Petit, J. J. Kavelaars, B. J. Gladman +8
We report the orbital distribution of the Trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) discovered during the High Ecliptic Latitude (HiLat) extension of the Canada-France Ecliptic Plane Survey (…
OSSOS: IV. Discovery of a dwarf planet candidate in the 9:2 resonance with Neptune
Michele T. Bannister, Mike Alexandersen, Susan D. Benecchi +32
We report the discovery and orbit of a new dwarf planet candidate, 2015 RR, by the Outer Solar System Origins Survey (OSSOS). 2015 RR's orbit is eccentric ($e=0.586…
Observational Signatures of a Massive Distant Planet on the Scattering Disk
S. M. Lawler, C. Shankman, N. Kaib +3
The orbital element distribution of trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) with large pericenters has been suggested to be influenced by the presence of an undetected, large planet at >200…
OSSOS III - Resonant Trans-Neptunian Populations: Constraints from the first quarter of the Outer Solar System Origins Survey
Kathryn Volk, Ruth Murray-Clay, Brett Gladman +10
The first two observational sky "blocks" of the Outer Solar System Origins Survey (OSSOS) have significantly increased the number of well-characterized observed trans-Neptunian obj…
TRIPPy: Trailed Image Photometry in Python
Wesley C. Fraser, Mike Alexandersen, Megan E. Schwamb +6
Photometry of moving sources typically suffers from reduced signal-to-noise (SNR) or flux measurements biased to incorrect low values through the use of circular apertures. To addr…
Insights into planet formation from debris disks: I. The solar system as an archetype for planetesimal evolution
Brenda C. Matthews, JJ Kavelaars
Circumstellar disks have long been regarded as windows into planetary systems. The advent of high sensitivity, high resolution imaging in the submillimetre where both the solid and…
