The outer solar system
The outer solar system extends beyond a heliocentric distance of 5AU. It contains the giant planets and their systems (rings and satellites), the Kuiper belt, the comets (except those which approach episodically the inner solar system) and, at its outer edge, the Oort cloud. The outer solar system physically corresponds to the region located outside the « snow line » which corresponded to the d...
متن کاملThe organic Solar System.
In the first part of this two-essay series1 it was pointed out that over 100 different organic compounds have been detected in space, and that there are many locations in the Solar System where complex — and as yet uncharacterized — mixtures of organic molecules can be found. The Galilean moon Europa is a case in point. Its surface is stained with unsaturated polymers called tholins, which are ...
متن کاملClast-rich H-chondrite Impact Melts
Introduction: The H-chondrite parent asteroid provides the second-most abundant type of meteorites that currently reach Earth's surface [1]. These rocks recorded their parent asteroid's collisional history and melted H-chondrites chronicle the most severe cratering events. Samples and Methods: Seven samples of clast-rich impact melt rocks from the La Paz Icefield, Antarctica were analyzed in Pl...
متن کاملAbundances of the elements: Meteoritic and solar
New abundance tables have been compiled for Cl chondrites and the solar photosphere and corona, based on a critical review of the literature to mid-1988. The meteorite data are generally accurate to +5-10%. Significant discrepancies between Sun and meteorites occur only for Fe, Mn, Ge, Pb, and W; other well-determined elements agree to &90/o on the average. There is no evidence for group fracti...
متن کاملNomenclature in the Outer Solar System
We define a nomenclature for the dynamical classification of objects in the outer solar system, mostly targeted at the Kuiper belt. We classify all 584 reasonable-quality orbits, as of May 2006. Our nomenclature uses moderate (10 m.y.) numerical integrations to help classify the current dynamical state of Kuiper belt objects as resonant or nonresonant, with the latter class then being subdivide...
