Migration in the shearing sheet and estimates for young open cluster migration
Alice C. Quillen, Eric Nolting, Ivan Minchev +2
Using tracer particles embedded in self-gravitating shearing sheet N-body simulations, we investigate the distance in guiding centre radius that stars or star clusters can migrate…
Tilting Styx and Nix but not Uranus with a Spin-Precession-Mean-motion resonance
Alice C. Quillen, Yuan-Yuan Chen, Benoit Noyelles +1
A Hamiltonian model is constructed for the spin axis of a planet perturbed by a nearby planet with both planets in orbit about star. We expand the planet-planet gravitational poten…
Obliquity evolution of the minor satellites of Pluto and Charon
Alice C. Quillen, Fiona Nichols-Fleming, Yuan-Yuan Chen +1
New Horizons mission observations show that the small satellites Styx, Nix, Kerberos and Hydra, of the Pluto-Charon system, have not tidally spun-down to near synchronous spin stat…
