Closed Form Expressions for the Potentials and Accelerations of Generalized Ring Models
Zachary Murray
We present several closed-form expressions of useful mass distributions. These include the potentials and accelerations of circular rings and arcs, the potentials of uniform densit…
Detecting False Positives With Derived Planetary Parameters: Experimenting with the KEPLER Dataset
Ayan Bin Rafaih, Zachary Murray
Recent developments in computational power and machine learning techniques motivate their use in many different astrophysical research areas. Consequently, many machine learning mo…
Numerical Determination of the Gravitational Cross Sections of an Accreting Binary
Zachary Murray
A significant amount of work has been devoted to the study of small binary solar system objects. The majority of these binaries, especially among the near-earth or main belt astero…
Boosting decision trees for Main Belt Asteroid selection in planetary ephemerides: an alternative model
Vincenzo Mariani, Agnès Fienga, Zachary Murray +2
One of the main bottleneck in assessing the accuracy of Mars orbit is the unknown value of the asteroids in the Main Asteroid Belt. Nowadays a modeling with 343 asteroids as point…
