The Trojan-like Colors of Low-perihelion Kuiper Belt Objects

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
An important testable prediction of dynamical instability models for the early evolution of the solar system is that Jupiter Trojans share a source population with the Kuiper Belt.

Observed Binary Fraction Sets Limits on the Extent of Collisional Grinding in the Kuiper Belt

open access: yes, 2011
The size distribution in the cold classical Kuiper belt can be approximated by two idealized power laws: one with steep slope for radii R>R* and one with shallow slope for ...

A Possible Divot in the Size Distribution of the Kuiper Belt's Scattering Objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Via joint analysis of a calibrated telescopic survey, which found scattering Kuiper Belt objects, and models of their expected orbital distribution, we measure the form of the scattering object's size distribution.

Regular Cold‐Water Immersion Following HIIT Does Not Affect Intramuscular Adaptation Markers, Inflammatory Profile or Endurance Performance

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 36, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The study aimed to investigate the effects of 5 weeks of post‐exercise cold‐water immersion (CWI) following high‐intensity interval training (HIIT) sessions on the satellite cell pool, muscle content of inflammatory markers, muscle expression of peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor‐γ coactivator 1‐α (PGC‐1α), maximal oxygen uptake (V ...

Dynamics of the Kuiper Belt [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Our current knowledge of the dynamical structure of the Kuiper Belt is reviewed here. Numerical results on long term orbital evolution and dynamical mechanisms underlying the transport of objects out of the Kuiper Belt are discussed.

The Challenge of Icy Sample Return Begins With Artemis

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Abstract Throughout the Solar System, volatiles are found as solid ices. Returning ices to Earth for scientific analysis is critical to understanding the formation of a Solar System that bears life. This challenge begins with the Artemis missions to the lunar south polar region, where the coldest lunar regolith is enriched in H2O and other ices—systems

Orbital Evolution of Scattered Planets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
A simple dynamical model is employed to study the possible orbital evolution of scattered planets and phase plane analysis is used to classify the parameter space and solutions.

WATER ICE IN THE KUIPER BELT [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2012
We examine a large collection of low resolution near-infrared spectra of Kuiper belt objects and centaurs in an attempt to understand the presence of water ice in the Kuiper belt. We find that water ice on the surface of these objects occurs in three separate manners: (1) Haumea family members uniquely show surfaces of nearly pure water ice, presumably

The Dynamic Inducing Magnetic Field Signal at Triton

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Abstract Triton, Neptune's largest moon, is suspected of harboring a subsurface ocean. Detecting sub‐surface oceans requires measuring the ocean's induced magnetic field, typically exploiting common frequencies at which the field environment of the moon changes, in this case Triton's path through Neptune's magnetosphere.

The Collisional Divot in the Kuiper belt Size Distribution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This paper presents the results of collisional evolution calculations for the Kuiper belt starting from an initial size distribution similar to that produced by accretion simulations of that region - a steep power-law large object size distribution that ...
