Solar System chaos and the Paleocene–Eocene boundary age constrained by geology and astronomy [PDF]
Science, 2019 Filling a dating hole The periodic nature of Earth's orbit around the Sun produces cycles of insolation reflected in climate records. Conversely, these climate records can be used to infer changes in the dynamics of the Solar System, which is inherently chaotic and not always similarly periodic.

Planetary Astronomy-Understanding the Origin of the Solar System [PDF]
, 2019 There is a vibrant and effective planetary science community in Canada. We do research in the areas of meteoritics, asteroid and trans-Neptunian object orbits and compositions, and space weather, and are involved in space probe missions to study planetary surfaces and interiors. For Canadian planetary scientists to deliver the highest scientific impact

Radio astronomy and the solar system [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1959 Radio astronomy has been expanding into outer space so fast in recent years that it is pleasant to find our own solar system at last receiving the attention it deserves. In this session we are concerned with everything within the system except the sun and our own planet. I start with a question, to which I shall return later: Where does the sun end? In

Solar system astronomy with the 3.6-m DOT and the 4-m ILMT
Bulletin de la Société Royale des Sciences de Liège, 2018 Solar system astronomy would be an important field of study with the 3.6-m Devasthal Optical Telescope (DOT) and the 4-m International Liquid Mirror Telescope (ILMT). In this contribution, we highlight the work that could be done in reaching a better understanding of the Solar system and its constituents - particularly the minor bodies and other ...

Laboratory Studies of Grains from outside the Solar System: A New Kind of Astronomy [PDF]
Science Progress, 1999 Several phases whose origins predate that of the solar system have been identified in primitive meteorites during the past dozen years. The properties and the observed isotopic structures of these grains provide a variety of information, not obtainable in this detail by other means, on several highly interesting subjects: (a) details of the nuclear ...

Linking the Solar System and Extrasolar Planetary Systems with Radar Astronomy: Infrastructure for "Ground Truth" Comparison [PDF]
, 2019 Planetary radars have obtained unique science measurements about solar system bodies and they have provided orbit determinations allowing spacecraft to be navigated throughout the solar system. Notable results have been on Venus, Earth's "twin," and small bodies, which are the constituents of the Sun's debris disk.
