Collection
Trans-Neptunian Objects
- Submission status
- Closed
The dynamical properties of objects orbiting beyond Neptune represent a challenge due to their distance and the few informations available from direct observations. Nevertheless, they represent also a bench-test for many theoretical and numerical investigations. The aim of this Topical Collection is to advance our knowledge on Trans-Neptunian objects by studying topics like Neptune Trojans, Planet 9, Kuiper belt formation and dynamics, Kuiper belt binaries and satellites, comets and cometary reservoirs, scattering and detached disks.
