High Albedos of Low Inclination Classical Kuiper Belt Objects
M. J. Brucker, W. M. Grundy, J. A. Stansberry +4
We present observations of thermal emission from fifteen transneptunian objects (TNOs) made using the Spitzer Space Telescope. Thirteen of the targets are members of the Classical…
A Brief History of Trans-Neptunian Space
E. Chiang, Y. Lithwick, R. Murray-Clay +3
The Edgeworth-Kuiper belt encodes the dynamical history of the outer solar system. Kuiper belt objects (KBOs) bear witness to coagulation physics, the evolution of planetary orbits…
Neptune Trojans as a Testbed for Planet Formation
E. I. Chiang, Y. Lithwick
The problem of accretion in the Trojan 1:1 resonance is akin to the standard problem of planet formation, transplanted from a star-centered disk to a disk centered on the Lagrange…
Resonance Occupation in the Kuiper Belt: Case Examples of the 5:2 and Trojan Resonances
E. I. Chiang, A. B. Jordan, R. L. Millis +7
As part of our ongoing Deep Ecliptic Survey (DES) of the Kuiper belt, we report on the occupation of the 1:1 (Trojan), 4:3, 3:2, 7:4, 2:1, and 5:2 Neptunian mean-motion resonances…
