Strong Nongravitational Accelerations and the Potential for Misidentification of Near-Earth Objects

Aster G. Taylor, Darryl Z. Seligman, Matthew J. Holman +5

Nongravitational accelerations in the absence of observed activity have recently been identified on NEOs, opening the question of the prevalence of anisotropic mass-loss in the nea…

ASSIST: An Ephemeris-Quality Test Particle Integrator

Matthew J. Holman, Arya Akmal, Davide Farnocchia +5

We introduce ASSIST, a software package for ephemeris-quality integrations of test particles. ASSIST is an extension of the REBOUND framework and makes use of its IAS15 integrator…

Can the gravitational effect of Planet X be detected in current-era tracking of the known major and minor planets?

Daniel C. H. Gomes, Zachary Murray, Rafael C. H. Gomes +2

Using Fisher information matrices, we forecast the uncertainties on the measurement of a "Planet X" at heliocentric distance via its tidal gravitational field's action…

The Effects of Disk Induced Apsidal Precession on Planets Captured into Mean Motion Resonance

Zachary Murray, Sam Hadden, Matthew J. Holman

The process of migration into resonance capture has been well studied for planetary systems where the gravitational potential is generated exclusively by the star and planets. Howe…

The TESS Mission Target Selection Procedure

Michael Fausnaugh, Ed Morgan, Roland Vanderspek +61

We describe the target selection procedure by which stars are selected for 2-minute and 20-second observations by TESS. We first list the technical requirements of the TESS instrum…
