How long-lived grains dominate the shape of the Zodiacal Cloud

Petr Pokorny, Althea V. Moorhead, Marc J. Kuchner +2

Grain-grain collisions shape the 3-dimensional size and velocity distribution of the inner Zodiacal Cloud and the impact rates of dust on inner planets, yet they remain the least u…

Shape models and spin states of Jupiter Trojans: Testing the streaming instability formation scenario

Josef Hanuš, David Vokrouhlický, David Nesvorný +5

The leading theory for the origin of Jupiter Trojans (JTs) assumes that JTs were captured to their orbits near the Lagrangian points of Jupiter during the early reconfiguration of…

Origin and evolution of Mercury's circumsolar dust ring

Petr Pokorny, Ariel N. Deutsch, Marc J. Kuchner

A circumsolar dust ring has been recently discovered close to the orbit of Mercury. There are currently no hypotheses for the origin of this ring in the literature, so we explore f…

Enrichment of the HR 8799 planets by minor bodies and dust

K. Frantseva, M. Mueller, P. Pokorný +2

In the Solar System, minor bodies and dust deliver various materials to planetary surfaces. Several exoplanetary systems are known to host inner and outer belts, analogues of the m…
