Formation of Water-rich Giant Planet Satellites at Decretion Disk Ice Lines
Teng Ee Yap, David J. Stevenson
The volatile budgets of giant planet satellites are critical to unraveling the origin of their building blocks within the circumplanetary disks that hosted them. The Galilean moons…
Callisto's Nonresonant Orbit as an Outcome of Circum-Jovian Disk Substructure
Teng Ee Yap, Konstantin Batygin
The Galilean moons of Io, Europa, and Ganymede exhibit a 4:2:1 commensurability in their mean motions, a configuration known as the Laplace resonance. The prevailing view for the o…
Infall and Disk Processes - the Message from Meteorites
François L. H. Tissot, Christoph Burkhardt, Aleksandra Kuznetsova +5
How do planetary systems, in general, and our own Solar System (SS), in particular, form? In conjunction, Astronomy and Isotope Cosmochemistry provide us with powerful tools to ans…
Early Solar System Turbulence Constrained by High Oxidation States of the Oldest Non-Carbonaceous Planetesimals
Teng Ee Yap, Konstantin Batygin, François L. H. Tissot
Early Solar System (SS) planetesimals constitute the parent bodies of most meteorites investigated today. Nucleosynthetic isotope anomalies of bulk meteorites have revealed a dicho…
