Configuration of the Martian dust rings: Shapes, densities and size-distributions from direct integrations of particle trajectories
Xiaodong Liu, Jürgen Schmidt
It is expected since the early 1970s that tenuous dust rings are formed by grains ejected from the Martian moons Phobos and Deimos by impacts of hypervelocity interplanetary projec…
Dust in the Jupiter system outside the rings
Xiaodong Liu, Jürgen Schmidt
Jupiter is one of the major targets for planetary exploration, and dust in the Jovian system is of great interest to researchers in the field of planetary science. In this paper, w…
Stable Periodic Orbits for Spacecrafts around Minor Celestial Bodies
Yu Jiang, Juergen Schmidt, Hengnian Li +2
We are interested in stable periodic orbits for spacecrafts in the gravitational field of minor celestial bodies. The stable periodic orbits around minor celestial bodies are usefu…
Comparison of the orbital properties of Jupiter Trojan asteroids and Trojan dust
Xiaodong Liu, Jürgen Schmidt
In a previous paper we simulated the orbital evolution of dust particles from the Jupiter Trojan asteroids ejected by the impacts of interplanetary particles, and evaluated their o…
Dynamics and distribution of Jovian dust ejected from the Galilean satellites
Xiaodong Liu, Manuel Sachse, Frank Spahn +1
In this paper, the dynamical analysis of the Jovian dust originating from the four Galilean moons is presented. High accuracy orbital integrations of dust particles are used to det…
Dust arcs in the region of Jupiter's Trojan asteroids
Xiaodong Liu, Jürgen Schmidt
Aims. The surfaces of the Trojan asteroids are steadily bombarded by interplanetary micrometeoroids, which releases ejecta of small dust particles. These particles form the faint d…
