Trans-Neptunian objects as natural probes to the unknown solar system
Patryk Sofia Lykawka
Trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) are icy/rocky bodies that move beyond the orbit of Neptune in a region known as the trans-Neptunian belt (or Edgeworth-Kuiper belt). In contrast to t…
2004 KV18 - A visitor from the Scattered Disk to the Neptune Trojan population
Jonathan Horner, Patryk Sofia Lykawka
We have performed a detailed dynamical study of the recently identified Neptunian Trojan 2004 KV18, only the second object to be discovered librating around Neptune's trailing Lagr…
(1173) Anchises - Thermophysical and Dynamical Studies of a Dynamically Unstable Jovian Trojan
J. Horner, T. G. Müller, P. S. Lykawka
We have performed detailed thermophysical and dynamical modelling of Jovian Trojan (1173) Anchises. Our results reveal a most unusual object. By examining observational data taken…
2008 LC18: a potentially unstable Neptune Trojan
J. Horner, P. S. Lykawka, M. T. Bannister +1
The recent discovery of the first Neptune Trojan at the planet's trailing (L5) Lagrange point, 2008 LC18, offers an opportunity to confirm the formation mechanism of a member of th…
Are Two of the Neptune Trojans Dynamically Unstable?
Jonathan Horner, Patryk Sofia Lykawka
The Neptune Trojans are the most recently discovered population of small bodies in the Solar System. To date, only eight have been discovered, though it is thought likely that the…
