The Hill Stability of Triple Minor Planets in the Solar System [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 427(2),
1034-1042, 2012, 2012 The triple asteroids and triple Kuiper belt objects (collectively called the triple minor planets) in the Solar system are of particular interest to the scientific community since the discovery of the first triple asteroid system in 2004. In this paper, the Hill stability of the nine known triple minor planets in the Solar system is investigated. Seven

ACCRETION OF A TERRESTRIAL-LIKE MINOR PLANET BY A WHITE DWARF [PDF]
, 2011 We present optical and infrared characterization of the polluted DAZ white dwarf GALEX J193156.8+011745. Imaging and spectroscopy from the ultraviolet to the thermal infrared indicate that this white dwarf hosts excess infrared emission consistent with ...

Calibration of the angular momenta of the minor planets in the solar system [PDF]
2019, A&A, 630, A68, 2019 We aim to determine the relative angle between the total angular momentum of the minor planets and that of the Sun-planets system, and to improve the orientation of the invariable plane of the solar system. By utilizing physical parameters available in public domain archives, we assigned reasonable masses to 718041 minor planets throughout the solar ...

Raining Rocks: An analytical formulation for collision timescales in planetary systems [PDF]
, 2021 The dynamical interaction of minor bodies (such as comets or asteroids) with planets plays an essential role in the planetary system's architecture and evolution. As a result of these interactions, structures like the Kuiper belt and the Oort cloud can be created.

Design of a Multi-function Minor Planet Soil Sampler
, 2015 ： The soil and rock sampling mission of planetoids far from the earth is a special topic. The soil samples in different depths should be analyzed in place and the data should be transmitted back to us. A multi-function sampler is presented to fulfill the
