The Resonance Hopping Effect in the Neptune-Planet Nine System

Tali Khain, Juliette Becker, Fred C. Adams

The observed physical clustering of the orbits of small bodies in the distant Kuiper Belt (TNOs) has recently prompted the prediction of an additional planet in the outer solar sys…

Dynamical Classification of Trans-Neptunian Objects Detected by the Dark Energy Survey

T. Khain, J. C. Becker, Hsing Wen Lin +52

The outer Solar System contains a large number of small bodies (known as trans-Neptunian objects or TNOs) that exhibit diverse types of dynamical behavior. The classification of bo…

Trans-Neptunian objects found in the first four years of the Dark Energy Survey

Pedro H. Bernardinelli, Gary M. Bernstein, Masao Sako +61

We present a catalog of 316 trans-Neptunian bodies detected by the Dark Energy Survey (DES). These objects include 245 discoveries by DES (139 not previously published) detected in…

Dynamical Analysis of Three Distant Trans-Neptunian Objects with Similar Orbits

T. Khain, J. C. Becker, F. C. Adams +62

This paper reports the discovery and orbital characterization of two extreme trans-Neptunian objects (ETNOs), 2016 QV and 2016 QU, which have orbits that appear simil…

Pinning and Depinning: from periodic to chaotic and random media

Noah Ankney, Montie Avery, Tali Khain +1

We study propagation of dissipative structures in inhomogeneous media with a focus on pinning and depinning transitions. We model spatial complexity in the medium as generated by d…

Evidence for Color Dichotomy in the Primordial Neptunian Trojan Population

Hsing Wen Lin, David W. Gerdes, Stephanie J. Hamilton +45

In the current model of early Solar System evolution, the stable members of the Jovian and Neptunian Trojan populations were captured into resonance from the leftover reservoir of…
