Survey of secular resonances in the asteroid belt [PDF]
Using a recently introduced synthetic method to compute the asteroid secular frequencies (Knežević and Milani 2019), in this paper we survey the locations of secular resonances in the 9 dynamically distinct zones of the asteroid belt.

A potential survival strategy during the late heavy bombardment [PDF]
The Late Heavy Bombardment (LHB) represents a period of time in which an increased number of impactors collided with the Earth. While there were continuous collisions of impactors globally, these would be perceived by populations of life as ...

Computation of asteroid proper elements: Recent advances [PDF]
The recent advances in computation of asteroid proper elements are briefly reviewed. Although not representing real breakthroughs in computation and stability assessment of proper elements, these advances can still be considered as important improvements

Third derivatives of the integrable part of an asteroid Hamiltonian [PDF]
To apply the theorem of Nekhoroshev (1977) to asteroids, one first has to check whether a necessary geometrical condition is fulfilled: either convexity, or quasi-convexity, or only a 3-jet non-degeneracy.
