Satellite Visibility During the April 2024 Total Eclipse
Samantha M. Lawler, Hanno Rein, Aaron C. Boley
On 8 April 2024, tens of millions of people across North America will be able to view a total solar eclipse. Such astronomical events have been important throughout history, but wi…
Investigating the stability of mass transfer in neutron star-helium white dwarf binaries
Hai-Liang Chen, Thomas M. Tauris, Xuefei Chen +1
Neutron star-helium white dwarf (NS+He WD) binaries are important evolutionary products of close-orbit binary star systems. They are often observed as millisecond pulsars and may c…
Consequences of a Distant Massive Planet on the Large Semi-major Axis Trans-Neptunian Objects
C. Shankman, JJ Kavelaars, S. M. Lawler +2
We explore the distant giant planet hypothesis by integrating the large semi-major axis, large pericenter Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs) in the presence of the giant planets and an…
ALMA Observations of the Debris Disk of Solar Analogue Tau Ceti
Meredith A. MacGregor, Samantha M. Lawler, David J. Wilner +4
We present 1.3 mm observations of the Sun-like star Ceti with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) that probe angular scales of '' (4 AU). This first…
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…
Fomalhaut b as a Dust Cloud: Frequent Collisions within the Fomalhaut Disk
S. M. Lawler, S. Greenstreet, B. Gladman
The planet candidate Fomalhaut b is bright in optical light but undetected in longer wavelengths, requiring a large, reflective dust cloud. The most recent observations find an ext…
