Simple‐To‐Complex Crater Transition for the Uranian Satellites Ariel and Miranda

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract The latest decadal survey identified the Uranus system as the highest‐priority new target for a NASA Flagship mission. Ariel and Miranda are potential ocean worlds with evidence of resurfacing potentially due to past elevated heat flow. Learning about the geologic histories of these icy moons is important for understanding the potential for ...

Identification and dynamical characterization of all numbered asteroids in the von Zeipel-Lidov-Kozai resonance inside Jupiter’s orbit

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The von Zeipel-Lidov-Kozai (ZLK) mechanism drives secular oscillations of the eccentricity and inclination that can reshape the orbital architecture of small bodies throughout the Solar System.

From strategic autonomy to strategic partnership: EU–India relations in health diplomacy

Global Policy, Volume 15, Issue 5, Page 901-914, November 2024.
Abstract The study examines the potential of the European Union (EU)–India cooperation in health diplomacy and the exchange of lessons learned by both actors. Particularly, the growing discourse on achieving strategic autonomy in health has not been adequately analysed in the existing literature, which is surprising given that both actors share this ...

Uranus’s Influence on Neptune’s Exterior Mean-motion Resonances

The Planetary Science Journal
Neptune’s external mean-motion resonances play an important role in sculpting the observed population of trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs). The population of scattering TNOs is known to “stick” to Neptune's resonances while evolving in semimajor axis ( a ),

The Effect of Massive Trans-Neptunian Objects in the Long-term Evolution and Leakage Rates of Neptune’s 3:2 and 2:1 Mean Motion Resonances

The Astronomical Journal
The current populations trapped in Neptune’s main mean motion resonances in the Kuiper Belt, Plutinos in the 3:2 and Twotinos in the 2:1, contain some of the best-characterized minor objects in the solar system, given their dynamical importance.

Not So Fast: A New Catalog of Meteor Persistent Trains

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 129, Issue 7, July 2024.
Abstract This paper presents the results of a nearly 2‐year long campaign to detect and analyze meteor persistent trains (PTs)—self‐emitting phenomena which can linger up to an hour after their parent meteor. The modern understanding of PTs has been primarily developed from the Leonid storms at the turn of the century; our goal was to assess the ...

The Doubly Librating Plutinos

The Astrophysical Journal
Named for orbital kinship with Pluto, the Plutinos are a prominent group of Kuiper Belt objects whose orbital periods are in libration about a 3/2 ratio with Neptune’s.

Destroying resonance between Neptune and its resonant Kuiper Belt Objects by stochastic planetesimal scatterings

, 2011
We revisit the destruction of resonance between Neptune and Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs) by random planetesimal scatterings, which has been studied by Murray-Clay and Chiang (2006) previously. In this work, we consider the encounters between Neptune's resonant KBOs and planetesimals and the Levy flight behavior of resonant KBOs corresponding to a single ...
