The Structure of the Kuiper Belt from Observations and Simulations: Understanding our Solar System's Architecture

open access: yes, 2017
There are currently close to 3000 known Kuiper Belt Objects. Their orbits show that the Kuiper Belt contains rich dynamical structures. By carefully recording telescope pointings, tracking biases, and detection biases, as has been done for a handful of

The Compositions of Kuiper Belt Objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Objects in the Kuiper belt are difficult to study in detail, even with the best telescopes available. Therefore, for many years, studies of the compositions of these objects were relegated to collections of moderate-quality spectroscopic and photometric ...

Faint moons orbiting Kuiper Belt objects

open access: yes, 2010
The Kuiper Belt is a Belt of ice and rocks located beyond the orbit of Neptune; Pluto is considered part of the Kuiper Belt. We used photometric data taken from the Magellan Clay telescope located in the Las Campanas Observatory in Chile.

Dynamics of the Kuiper Belt

open access: yes, 2000
. Our current knowledge of the dynamical structure of the Kuiper Belt is reviewed here. Numeri-cal results on long term orbital evolution and dynamical mechanisms underlying the transport of objects out of the Kuiper Belt are discussed.

Medium-sized Satellites of Large Kuiper Belt Objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
While satellites of mid- to small-Kuiper Belt objects tend to be similar in size and brightness to their primaries, the largest Kuiper Belt objects preferentially have satellites with small fractional brightness.
