The statistics of extrasolar planetary systems indicate that the default mode of planet
formation generates planets with orbital periods shorter than 100 days and masses …

The migration history of Jupiter in the Sun's natal disk remains poorly constrained. Here we
consider how Jupiter's migration affects small-body reservoirs and how this constrains its …

The four massive Galilean satellites are believed to have formed within a circumplanetary
disk during the last stages of Jupiter's formation. While the existence of a circum-Jovian disk …

We report on numerical simulations exploring the dynamical stability of planetesimals in the
gaps between the outer Solar System planets. We search for stable niches in the …

ABSTRACT Planets of 1–4 times Earth's size on orbits shorter than 100 days exist around 30–
50% of all Sun-like stars. In fact, the Solar System is particularly outstanding in its lack of" hot …

More than two decades after the widespread detection of Jovian-class planets on short-
period orbits around other stars, their dynamical origins remain imperfectly understood. In …

Studies of solar system formation suggest that the solar system's giant planets formed and
migrated in the protoplanetary disk to reach the resonant orbits with all planets inside∼ 15 …

We propose that two of the most surprising results so far among exoplanet discoveries are
related: the existences of both hot Jupiters and the high frequency of multi-planet systems …

The dynamical structure of the Solar System can be explained by a period of orbital
instability experienced by the giant planets. While a late instability was originally proposed …

We examine how the late divergent migration of Jupiter and Saturn may have perturbed the
terrestrial planets. Using a modified secular model we have identified six secular …
