The Formation of Bilobate Comet Shapes through Sublimative Torques

Taylor K. Safrit, Jordan K. Steckloff, Amanda S. Bosh +4

Recent spacecraft and radar observations have found that ~70 percent of short-period comet nuclei, mostly Jupiter-family comets (JFCs), have bilobate shapes (two masses connected b…

Isotopically distinct terrestrial planets via local accretion

Jingyi Mah, Ramon Brasser

Combining isotopic constraints from meteorite data with dynamical models of planet formation proves to be advantageous in identifying the best model for terrestrial planet formatio…

Modification of the composition and density of Mercury from late accretion

Ryuki Hyodo, Hidenori Genda, Ramon Brasser

Late accretion is a process that strongly modulated surface geomorphic and geochemical features of Mercury. Yet, the fate of the impactors and their effects on Mercury's surface th…

No evidence for interstellar planetesimals trapped in the Solar System

A. Morbidelli, K. Batygin, R. Brasser +1

In two recent papers published in MNRAS, Namouni and Morais (2018, 2020) claimed evidence for the interstellar origin of some small Solar System bodies, including i) objects in ret…

A new and simple prescription for planet orbital migration and eccentricity damping by planet-disc interactions based on dynamical friction

Shigeru Ida, Takayuki Muto, Soko Matsumura +1

During planet formation gravitational interaction between a planetary embryo and the protoplanetary gas disc causes orbital migration of the planetary embryo, which plays an import…
