Over the course of the past two decades, observational surveys have unveiled the intricate
orbital structure of the Kuiper Belt, a field of icy bodies orbiting the Sun beyond Neptune. In …

Abstract The Outer Solar System Origins Survey (OSSOS), a wide-field imaging program in
2013–2017 with the Canada–France–Hawaii Telescope, surveyed 155 deg 2 of sky to …

We report the discovery, tracking, and detection circumstances for 85 trans-Neptunian
objects (TNOs) from the first 42 deg 2 of the Outer Solar System Origins Survey. This …

Astronomical solutions provide calculated orbital and rotational parameters of solar system
bodies based on the dynamics and physics of the solar system. Application of astronomical …

Measurements of the obliquities in exoplanet systems have revealed some remarkable
architectures, some of which are very different from the Solar System. Nearly 200 obliquity …

In this analytical study, a novel solving method for determining the precise coordinates of a
mass point in orbit around a significantly more massive primary body, operating within the …

The main asteroid belt (MB) is low in mass but dynamically excited. Here we propose a new
mechanism to excite the MB during the giant planet (the" Nice model") instability, which is …

We measured the mean plane of the Kuiper Belt as a function of semimajor axis. For the
classical Kuiper Belt as a whole (the nonresonant objects in the semimajor axis range 42 …

The six-degree obliquity of the Sun suggests that either an asymmetry was present in the
solar system's formation environment, or an external torque has misaligned the angular …

Measuring the obliquity distribution of stars hosting warm Jupiters may help us to
understand the formation of close-orbiting gas giants. Few such measurements have been …
