Global Analysis of Storm Surge Seasonality
Abstract We perform the first global analysis of storm surge seasonality using surge data from a global hydrodynamic model with full coverage of coastal areas, providing valuable insights for regions not represented in alternative observational data sources. We apply directional statistics based on the mixture model of the von Mises‐Fisher distribution

JWST Spectroscopy of a Blue Binary Cold Classical Kuiper Belt Object
We present observations of two binary systems within the cold classical region of the Kuiper Belt—2001 XR254 and 2016 BP81—obtained with the JWST Near-Infrared Spectrograph.

The Tidal Potential of a Homogeneous Torus with an Elliptical Section of the Sleeve
In this paper the problem of the tidal potential of a homogeneous gravitating torus with an elliptical cross-section sleeve is solved. In particular, the potentials in analytical form in the vicinity of the center of the torus and its external region are

Spectroscopic Links among Giant Planet Irregular Satellites and Trojans
We collect near-infrared spectra (∼0.75–2.55 μ m) of four Jovian irregular satellites and visible spectra (∼0.32–1.00 μ m) of two Jovian irregular satellites, two Uranian irregular satellites, and four Neptune Trojans.

Observational constraints on the orbit and location of Planet Nine in the outer solar system [PDF]
We use an extensive suite of numerical simulations to constrain the mass and orbit of Planet Nine, the recently proposed perturber in a distant eccentric orbit in the outer solar system.

Deep gorges with abrupt river elbows and high‐elevation, low‐relief interfluves containing fluvial sedimentary rocks characterize southeastern Tibet. This transient landscape reflects Eocene to present drainage divide migrations and river captures, reshaping catchment boundaries through episodic exchanges of drainage area between neighboring basins ...

Calculating the Area within the Orbit of Arrokoth
The area within the orbit of the Kuiper Belt object (KBO) Arrokoth (or 2014MU69) is approximated using the corresponding ellipse. The fact that the Sun lies at a focus of the ellipse is of interest.

We suggest that in the rare case of an Intermediate-Luminosity Optical Transient (ILOTs) event, evaporation of extra-solar Kuiper belt objects (ExtraKBOs) at distances of d ~ 500 - 10000AU from the ILOT can be detected. If the ILOT lasts for 1 month to a

ABSTRACT Background Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite constellations are redefining the concept of global connectivity, opening up a new world of opportunities for communication services and applications. Purpose The emergence of LEO satellites (SATs) is ushering in a new era of innovation, where new complex technologies are being developed, and the use ...

The close encounters of the Pluto–Charon system and the Kuiper Belt object Arrokoth (formerly 2014 MU69) by NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft in 2015 and 2019, respectively, have given new perspectives on the most distant planetary bodies yet explored ...
