Journal ArticleDOI
Are There Many Inactive Jupiter-Family Comets among the Near-Earth Asteroid Population?
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed the dynamical evolution of JF comets and near-Earth asteroids with aphelion distances Q > 3.5 AU, paying special attention to the problem of mixing of both populations, such that inactive comets may be disguised as NEAs.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the origin of the high-perihelion scattered disk: the role of the kozai mechanism and mean motion resonances
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the transfer process from the scattered disk to the high-perihelion scattered disk (HPSD) by means of two different models: one model assumes that SD objects (SDOs) were formed closer to the Sun and driven outwards by resonant coupling with the accreting Neptune during the stage of outward migration; the other model (Model 2) considers the observed population of SDOs plus clones that try to compensate for observational discovery bias.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Buildup of a Tightly Bound Comet Cloud around an Early Sun Immersed in a Dense Galactic Environment: Numerical Experiments
TL;DR: In this article, the authors simulate numerically the buildup of a comet reservoir around the early Sun assumed to be still immersed in the placental molecular gas that gave birth to it, and to be gravitationally bound to other young stars formed out of the same gas.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Existence of a Planet beyond 50 AU and the Orbital Distribution of the Classical Edgeworth–Kuiper-Belt Objects
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of a Mars-like planetoid with a semimajor axis at about ∼60 AU orbiting embedded in the primordial Edgeworth-Kuiper belt (EKB) are studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
The scattered disk population as a source of Oort cloud comets: evaluation of its current and past role in populating the Oort cloud
TL;DR: In this article, the authors integrated the orbits of 76 scattered disk objects (SDOs), discovered through the end of 2002, plus 399 clones for 5 Gyr to study their dynamical evolution and the probability of falling in one of the following end states: reaching Jupiter's influence zone, hyperbolic ejection, or transfer to the Oort cloud.
