Trans-Neptunian Object dynamics even better explained by a stellar flyby after 4.5 Gyr of evolution

Susanne Pfalzner, Frank W. Wagner, Marco Bischoff

The Trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) formed together with the planets from a flat disc of gas and dust but now orbit the Sun mostly on inclined, eccentric orbits. One explanation for…

Disc lifetime distribution as a function of the mass of host star

Susanne Pfalzner, Furkan Dincer, Nienke van der Marel +1

The lifetime of protoplanetary discs is a critical factor for planet formation. Although the mean disc lifetime provides an estimate of the typical period available for planet form…

Towards FAIR Astrophysical Simulations

Susanne Pfalzner, Stephan Hachinger, Jolanta Zjupa +4

Reproducibility is a cornerstone of science. FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable) data is often a vital step towards testing the reproducibility of results. The…

TNO colours provide new evidence for a past close flyby of another star to the Solar System

Susanne Pfalzner, Frank W. Wagner, Paul Gibbon

Thousands of small bodies, known as trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs), orbit the Sun beyond Neptune. TNOs are remnants of the planets' formation from a disc of gas and dust, so it is…

Irregular moons possibly injected from the outer solar system by a stellar flyby

Susanne Pfalzner, Amith Govind, Frank Wagner

The irregular moons orbit the giant planets on distant, inclined, and eccentric trajectories, in sharp contrast with the coplanar and quasicircular orbits of the regular moons. The…
