Formation, Composition, and History of the Pluto System: A Post-New-Horizons Synthesis

William B. McKinnon, Christopher R. Glein, Tanguy Bertrand +1

The Pluto-Charon system provides a broad variety of constraints on planetary formation, composition, chemistry, and evolution. Pluto was the first body to be discovered in what is…

Captured Small Solar System Bodies in the Ice Giant Region

Timothy R. Holt, Bonnie Buratti, Julie Castillo-Rogez +14

This white paper advocates for the inclusion of small, captured Outer Solar system objects, found in the Ice Giant region in the next Decadal Survey. These objects include the Troj…

Charon: A brief history of tides

Alyssa Rose Rhoden, Helle L. Skjetne, Wade G. Henning +9

In 2015, the New Horizons spacecraft flew past Pluto and its moon Charon, providing the first clear look at the surface of Charon. New Horizons images revealed an ancient surface,…

Seismicity on Tidally Active Solid-Surface Worlds

T. A. Hurford, W. G. Henning, R. Maguire +8

Tidal interactions between planets or stars and the bodies that orbit them dissipate energy in their interiors. The energy dissipated drives internal heating and a fraction of that…

Linking Europa's plume activity to tides, tectonics, and liquid water

Alyssa R. Rhoden, Terry A. Hurford, Lorenz Roth +1

Much of the geologic activity preserved on Europa's icy surface has been attributed to tidal deformation, mainly due to Europa's eccentric orbit. Although the surface is geological…
