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 ...

Origin of the peculiar eccentricity distribution of the inner cold Kuiper belt

, 2013
Dawson and Murray-Clay (2012) pointed out that the inner part of the cold population in the Kuiper belt (that with semi major axis ...

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 ...

Rotational Study of 5:3 and 7:4 Resonant Objects within the Main Classical Trans-Neptunian Belt

The Planetary Science Journal
The 5:3 and 7:4 mean motion resonances of Neptune are at 42.3 and 43.7 au, respectively, and overlap with objects in the classical trans-Neptunian belt (Kuiper Belt).

The curiously warped mean plane of the Kuiper belt

, 2017
We measured the mean plane of the Kuiper belt as a function of semi-major axis. For the classical Kuiper belt as a whole (the non-resonant objects in the semi-major axis range 42--48~au), we find a mean plane of inclination $i_m=1.8^{\circ}$$^{+0.7 ...

Planar resonant periodic orbits in Kuiper belt dynamics [PDF]

, 2005
In the framework of the planar restricted three body problem we study a considerable number of resonances associated to the Kuiper Belt dynamics and located between 30 and 48 a.u.

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 ),

Tracking Neptune's Migration History through High-Perihelion Resonant Trans-Neptunian Objects

, 2016
Recently, Sheppard et al. (2016) presented the discovery of seven new trans-Neptunian objects with moderate eccentricities, perihelia beyond 40 AU, and semimajor axes beyond 50 AU.

Colors of Inner Disk Classical Kuiper Belt Objects [PDF]

, 2010
We present new optical broadband colors, obtained with the Keck 1 and Vatican Advanced Technology telescopes, for six objects in the inner classical Kuiper Belt.

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.
