A record of the final phase of giant planet migration fossilized in the asteroid belt's orbital structure
Matthew S. Clement, Alessandro Morbidelli, Sean N. Raymond +1
The asteroid belt is characterized by an extreme low total mass of material on dynamically excited orbits. The Nice Model explains many peculiar qualities of the solar system, incl…
Dynamical Constraints on Mercury's Collisional Origin
Matthew S. Clement, Nathan A. Kaib, John E. Chambers
Of the solar system's four terrestrial planets, the origin of Mercury is perhaps the most mysterious. Modern numerical simulations designed to model the dynamics of terrestrial pla…
The early instability scenario: terrestrial planet formation during the giant planet instability, and the effect of collisional fragmentation
Matthew S. Clement, Nathan A. Kaib, Sean N. Raymond +2
The solar system's dynamical state can be explained by an orbital instability among the giant planets. A recent model has proposed that the giant planet instability happened during…
