A dense ring of the trans-Neptunian object Quaoar outside its Roche limit
Nature, 2023 Des anneaux planétaires sont observés non seulement autour de planètes géantes1, mais aussi autour de petits corps tels que le Centaure Chariklo2 et la planète naine Haumea3. Jusqu'à présent, tous les anneaux denses connus étaient situés assez près de leurs corps parents, étant à l'intérieur de la limite de Roche, où les forces de marée empêchent les ...

On the Relation between Hot Jupiters and the Roche Limit [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2006 Many of the known extrasolar planets are ``hot Jupiters,'' giant planets with orbital periods of just a few days. We use the observed distribution of hot Jupiters to constrain the location of the ``inner edge'' and planet migration theory. If we assume the location of the inner edge is proportional to the Roche limit, then we find that this edge is ...

Roy. Dub. Soc., 1897, vol. vi.).
