APPROX -- Mutual approximations between the Galilean moons. The 2016-2018 observational campaign
B. Morgado, R. Vieira-Martins, M. Assafin +23
The technique of mutual approximations accurately gives the central instant at the maximum apparent approximation of two moving natural satellites in the sky plane. This can be use…
A general method for transforming non-physical configurations in BPS states
J. R. L. Santos, A. de Souza Dutra, O. C. Winter +1
In this work, we apply the so-called BPS method in order to obtain topological defects for a complex scalar field Lagrangian introduced by Trullinger and Subbaswamy. The BPS approa…
Rings under close encounters with the giant planets: Chariklo vs Chiron
R. A. N. Araujo, O. C. Winter, R. Sfair
In 2014, the discovery of two well-defined rings around the Centaur (10199) Chariklo were announced. This was the first time that such structures were found around a small body. In…
Comparison between Laplace-Lagrange Secular Theory and Numerical Simulation
Barbara Celi Braga Camargo, Othon Cabo Winter, Dietmar William Foryta
The large increase in exoplanet discoveries in the last two decades showed a variety of systems whose stability is not clear. In this work we chose the Andromedae system…
The when and where of water in the history of the universe
Karla de Souza Torres, Othon Cabo Winter
It is undeniable that life as we know it depends on liquid water. It is difficult to imagine any biochemical machinery that does not require water. On Earth, life adapts to the mos…
Particles co-orbital to Janus and Epimetheus: a firefly planetary ring
Othon C. Winter, Alexandre P. S. Souza, Rafael Sfair +3
The Cassini spacecraft found a new and unique ring that shares the trajectory of Janus and Epimetheus, co-orbital satellites of Saturn. Performing image analysis, we found this to…
