Plutino Detection Biases, Including the Kozai Resonance

S. M. Lawler, B. Gladman

Because of their proximity within the transneptunian region, the plutinos (objects in the 3:2 mean-motion resonance with Neptune) are numerous in flux-limited catalogs, and well-st…

Debris Disks in Kepler Exoplanet Systems

S. M. Lawler, B. Gladman

The Kepler Mission recently identified 997 systems hosting candidate extrasolar planets, many of which are super-Earths. Realizing these planetary systems are candidates to host ex…
