Stability in the Most External Region of the Oort Cloud: Evolution of the Ejected Comets

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
In this paper, we present a study of the dynamical effects of the Galaxy on the external region of the Oort Cloud. Theaimsofthispaperare: (i) to determine an outer limit for the Oort Cloud; and (ii) to analyse the dynamical behaviour of the most external

The Scattered Disk Population as a Source of Oort Cloud Comets: Evaluation of Its Current and Past Role in Populating the Oort Cloud [PDF]

open access: yesIcarus, 2004
We have integrated the orbits of the 76 scattered disk objects (SDOs), discovered through the end of 2002, plus 399 clones for 5 Gyr to study their dynamical evolution and the probability of falling in one of the following end states: reaching Jupiter's ...

The “Memory” of the Oort Cloud

open access: yesAstronomy and Astrophysics, 2018
Aims. Our aim in this paper is to try to discover if we can find any record of the Oort cloud formation process in the orbital distribution of currently observable long-periodic comets. Methods.

Oort Cloud Formation at Various Galactic Distances

open access: yesAstronomy and Astrophysics, 2010
In this study we present the results from numerical simulations of the formation of the Oort comet cloud where we positioned the Sun in various parts of the disc of the Galaxy, starting at 2 kpc up to 20 kpc from the Galactic centre. All simulations were

Capture of the Sun's Oort Cloud From Stars in Its Birth Cluster

open access: yesScience, 2010
Out of the Oort Cloud Long-period comets originate from the Oort cloud, a vast reservoir of icy bodies that surrounds the solar system. These bodies are thought to be remnants from the formation of the solar system.
