A collisionless scenario for Uranus tilting
Gwenaël Boué, Jacques Laskar
The origin of the high inclination of Uranus' spin-axis (Uranus' obliquity) is one of the great unanswered questions about the Solar system. Giant planets are believed to form with…

Speed limit on Neptune migration imposed by Saturn tilting
Gwenaël Boué, Jacques Laskar, Petr Kuchynka
In this Letter, we give new constraints on planet migration. They were obtained under the assumption that Saturn's current obliquity is due to a capture in resonance with Neptune's…

Kinematic deprojection and mass inversion of spherical systems of known velocity anisotropy
Gary A. Mamon, Gwenael Boué
Traditionally, the mass / velocity anisotropy degeneracy (MAD) inherent in the spherical, stationary, non-streaming Jeans equation has been handled by assuming a mass profile and f…
