Apsidal asymmetric-alignment of Jupiter Trojans
Jian Li, Hanlun Lei, Zhihong J. Xia
The most distant Kuiper belt objects exhibit the clustering in their orbits, and this anomalous architecture could be caused by Planet 9 with large eccentricity and high inclinatio…
Mean plane of the Kuiper belt beyond 50 AU in the presence of Planet 9
Jian Li, Zhihong Jeff Xia
Context. A recent observational census of Kuiper belt objects (KBOs) has unveiled anomalous orbital structures. This has led to the hypothesis that an additional $\sim5-10~m_{\oplu…
A study of the high-inclination population in the Kuiper belt -- III. The 4:7 mean motion resonance
Jian Li, S. M. Lawler, Li-Yong Zhou +1
The high-inclination population in the 4:7 mean motion resonance (MMR) with Neptune has also substantial eccentricities (), with more inclined objects tending to occup…
A systematic survey of the dynamics of Uranus Trojans
Lei Zhou, Li-Yong Zhou, Rudolf Dvorak +1
We aim to locate the stability region for Uranus Trojans (UT hereafter) and find out the dynamical mechanisms responsible for the structures in the phase space. Using the spectral…
Calibration of the angular momenta of the minor planets in the solar system
Jian Li, Zhihong Jeff Xia, Liyong Zhou
We aim to determine the relative angle between the total angular momentum of the minor planets and that of the Sun-planets system, and to improve the orientation of the invariable…
Constructing a refined model of small bodies in the solar system - I. The Jovian Trojans
Jian Li, Yi-Sui Sun
Aim. We construct a new arc model to represent the global perturbation induced by the Jupiter Trojans for the development of the modern planetary ephemerides. Methods. The Jupiter…
