On the 'Scattered' Inclinations in the Kuiper Belt
Fred Franklin, Paul Soper
This paper shows that the inclinations of bodies captured into mean motion resonances in the Kuiper belt have remained very nearly unchanged, being only slightly increased from ini…
Chaos in Mean Motion Resonances of the Kuiper Belt
Fred Franklin, Paul Soper
In this paper on mean motion resonances in the Kuiper belt we consider effects on resonant bodies captured in an earlier migration by determining levels of chaos as a function of e…
Locations and Strengths of Secondary Resonances Lying within Four First Order Mean Motion Resonances
Fred Franklin, Paul Soper
Our concern here is the nature of secondary resonances--commensurabilities between apsidal and libration periods lying within first-order mean motion resonances [mmr] in the solar…
The Influence of Mean Motion Resonances on the Outer Kuiper Belt: Does the Outer Kuiper Belt have a Future?
Fred Franklin, Paul Soper
It often seems as though papers bearing titles in the form of a question end with ambiguous answers. Here the situation is different: the outer Kuiper belt does have a definite fut…
Chaos in the Solar System
M. Lecar, F. Franklin, M. Holman +1
The physical basis of chaos in the solar system is now better understood: in all cases investigated so far, chaotic orbits result from overlapping resonances. Perhaps the clearest…
