Migrating Scarps as a Significant Driver for Cometary Surface Evolution
Samuel Birch, Alexander Hayes, Orkan Umurhan +10
Rosetta observations of 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko (67P) reveal that most changes occur in the fallback-generated smooth terrains, vast deposits of granular material blanketing the…
Reorientation of Sputnik Planitia implies a Subsurface Ocean on Pluto
F. Nimmo, D. P. Hamilton, W. B. McKinnon P. M. Schenk +60
The deep nitrogen-covered Sputnik Planitia (SP; informal name) basin on Pluto is located very close to the longitude of Pluto's tidal axis[1] and may be an impact feature [2], by a…
Formation of Charon's Red Poles From Seasonally Cold-Trapped Volatiles
W. M. Grundy, D. P. Cruikshank, G. R. Gladstone +38
A unique feature of Pluto's large satellite Charon is its dark red northern polar cap. Similar colours on Pluto's surface have been attributed to organic macromolecules produced by…
The Atmosphere of Pluto as Observed by New Horizons
G. Randall Gladstone, S. Alan Stern, Kimberly Ennico +31
Observations made during the New Horizons flyby provide a detailed snapshot of the current state of Pluto's atmosphere. While the lower atmosphere (at altitudes <200 km) is consist…
Stellar Oscillons
O. M. Umurhan, L. Tao, E. A. Spiegel
We study the weakly nonlinear evolution of acoustic instability of a plane- parallel polytrope with thermal dissipation in the form of Newton's law of cooling. The most unstable ho…
