A Star-sized Impact-Produced Dust Clump in the Terrestrial Zone of the HD 166191 System
Kate Y. L. Su, Grant M. Kennedy, Everett Schlawin +2
We report on five years of 3-5 micron photometry measurements obtained by warm Spitzer to track the dust debris emission in the terrestrial zone of HD 166191 in combination with si…
Carbon monoxide gas produced by a giant impact in the inner region of a young system
Tajana Schneiderman, Luca Matrà, Alan P. Jackson +7
Models of terrestrial planet formation predict that the final stages of planetary assembly, lasting tens of millions of years beyond the dispersal of young protoplanetary disks, ar…
Matters Arising on "Breakup of a long-period comet as the origin of the dinosaur extinction" by Siraj & Loeb
Steven J. Desch, Alan P Jackson, Jessica L. Noviello +1
The recent publication by Siraj & Loeb (2021; Nature Scientific Reports 11, 3803) attempts to revive the debate over whether the Chicxulub impactor was a comet or an asteroid. They…
The Chicxulub Impactor: Comet or Asteroid?
Steve Desch, Alan Jackson, Jessica Noviello +1
A recent paper by Siraj & Loeb (2021) entitled "Breakup of a long-period comet as the origin of the dinosaur extinction" attempts to revive the perennial debate about what type of…
Dynamical avenues for Mercury's origin I: The lone survivor of a primordial generation of short-period proto-planets
Matthew S. Clement, John E. Chambers, Alan P. Jackson
The absence of planets interior to Mercury continues to puzzle terrestrial planet formation models, particularly when contrasted with the relatively high derived occurrence rates o…
1I/'Oumuamua as an N2 ice fragment of an exo-Pluto surface: I. size and compositional constraints
Alan P. Jackson, Steven J. Desch
The origin of the interstellar object 1I/'Oumuamua has defied explanation. We perform calculations of the non-gravitational acceleration that would be experienced by bodies compose…
