On phase-space singular surfaces in gravity
Dražen Glavan, David M. J. Vokrouhlický
We perform a Hamiltonian constraint analysis of metric gravity in the Jordan frame and show that the regular constraint classification degenerates on singular phase-space su…
Rotational Light-curve Recovery and Predictions of the LSST Yield of Hildas
Alexander J. Fleming, Jacob A. Kurlander, Dmitrii E. Vavilov +4
The Hilda population occupies the stable 3:2 mean-motion resonance of Jupiter and provides a window into solar system evolution, including collisional processes. The National Scien…
Analysis of Karin and Koronis2 asteroid families: new findings and challenges
David Vokrouhlický, David Nesvorný, William F. Bottke
We use our home catalog of the asteroid proper elements to study the Karin family. The hierarchical clustering method provides formal identification with 3,863 members, but this se…
Discovery of 63 New Young Asteroid Families
David Nesvorny, David Vokrouhlicky, Miroslav Broz +1
We searched for young asteroid families -- those with ages t_age < 10 Myr and at least three members -- using the proper element catalog from Nesvorny et al. (2024). Our approach e…
Predictions of the LSST Solar System Yield: Near-Earth Objects, Main Belt Asteroids, Jupiter Trojans, and Trans-Neptunian Objects
Jacob A. Kurlander, Pedro H. Bernardinelli, Megan E. Schwamb +18
The NSF-DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory is a new 8m-class survey facility presently being commissioned in Chile, expected to begin the 10yr-long Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST…
Stealth black holes in Aether Scalar Tensor theory
Constantinos Skordis, David M. J. Vokrouhlicky
The Aether Scalar Tensor (AeST) theory is an extension of general relativity(GR) successful at reproducing galactic rotational curves, gravitational lensing, linear large scale str…
