Direct Imaging of Irregular Satellite Disks in Scattered Light

Loic Nassif-Lachapelle, Daniel Tamayo

Direct imaging surveys have found that long-period super-Jupiters are rare. By contrast, recent modeling of the widespread gaps in protoplanetary disks revealed by ALMA suggests an…

REBOUNDx: A Library for Adding Conservative and Dissipative Forces to Otherwise Symplectic N-body Integrations

Daniel Tamayo, Hanno Rein, Pengshuai Shi +1

Symplectic methods, in particular the Wisdom-Holman map, have revolutionized our ability to model the long-term, conservative dynamics of planetary systems. However, many astrophys…

On the accuracy of symplectic integrators for secularly evolving planetary systems

Hanno Rein, Garett Brown, Daniel Tamayo

Symplectic integrators have made it possible to study the long-term evolution of planetary systems with direct N-body simulations. In this paper we reassess the accuracy of such si…

High order symplectic integrators for planetary dynamics and their implementation in REBOUND

Hanno Rein, Daniel Tamayo, Garett Brown

Direct N-body simulations and symplectic integrators are effective tools to study the long-term evolution of planetary systems. The Wisdom-Holman (WH) integrator in particular has…

The Chaotic Nature of TRAPPIST-1 Planetary Spin States

Alec M. Vinson, Daniel Tamayo, Brad M. S. Hansen

The TRAPPIST-1 system has 7 known terrestrial planets arranged compactly in a mean motion resonant chain around an ultra-cool central star, some within the estimated habitable zone…

Hybrid Symplectic Integrators for Planetary Dynamics

Hanno Rein, David M. Hernandez, Daniel Tamayo +6

Hybrid symplectic integrators such as MERCURY are widely used to simulate complex dynamical phenomena in planetary dynamics that could otherwise not be investigated. A hybrid integ…
