The long-term evolution of known resonant trans-Neptunian objects

, 2017
Aims. Numerous trans-Neptunian objects are known to be in mean-motion resonance with Neptune. We aim to describe their long-term orbital evolution (both past and future) by means of a one-degree-of-freedom secular model.

Synchronous Rotation in the (120347) Salacia–Actaea System

The Planetary Science Journal
We report on roughly 16 yr of photometric monitoring of the trans-Neptunian binary system (120347) Salacia–Actaea, which provides significant evidence that Salacia and Actaea are tidally locked to the mutual orbital period in a fully synchronous ...

Generation of Highly Inclined Trans-Neptunian Objects by Planet Nine [PDF]

, 2016
The trans-Neptunian region of the solar system exhibits an intricate dynamical structure, much of which can be explained by an instability-driven orbital history of the giant planets.

A ring system detected around the Centaur (10199) Chariklo [PDF]

, 2014
Hitherto, rings have been found exclusively around the four giant planets in the Solar System1. Rings are natural laboratories in which to study dynamical processes analogous to those that take place during the formation of planetary systems and galaxies.

Occultation of X-rays from Scorpius X-1 by small trans-Neptunian objects

, 2011
[[abstract]]Since the discovery of the trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) in 1992, nearly one thousand new members have been added to our Solar System, several of which are as big as - or even larger than - Pluto.

Generation of Low-inclination, Neptune-crossing Trans-Neptunian Objects by Planet Nine

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The solar system’s distant reaches exhibit a wealth of anomalous dynamical structure, hinting at the presence of a yet-undetected, massive trans-Neptunian body—Planet Nine (P9).

Detection of Close Kuiper Belt Binaries with HST WFC3

The Planetary Science Journal
Binaries in the Kuiper Belt are common. Here we present our analysis of the Solar System Origins Legacy Survey (SSOLS) to show that using a point-spread function (PSF)-fitting method can roughly double the number of binaries identified in that data set ...
