Giga-year evolution of Jupiter Trojans and the asymmetry problem
(Elsevier Inc, 2014-09)
We present a series of numerical integrations of observed and fictitious Jupiter Trojan asteroids, under the gravitational effects of the four outer planets, for time-spans comparable with the age of the Solar System. From ...
Collisional and dynamical evolution of the L4 Trojan asteroids
(EDP Sciences, 2007-11)
Aims. In this paper, we analyze the collisional and dynamical evolution of the population of L4 Jovian Trojans. Methods. To do this, we test different collisional parameters and include a dynamical treatment, taking into ...
The dynamical evolution of escaped Jupiter Trojan asteroids, link to other minor body populations
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2019-02)
The Jupiter Trojans constitute an important asteroidal population both in number and also in relation to their dynamical and physical properties. They are asteroids located around L4 and L5 Lagrangian points on relatively ...
Collisions, Cosmic Radiation and the Colors of the Trojan Asteroids
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2009-04)
The Trojan asteroids orbit about the Lagrangian points of Jupiter and the
residence times about their present location are very long for most of them.
If these bodies originated in the outer Solar System, they should be ...
Physical properties and orbital stability of the Trojan asteroids
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2008-12)
All the Trojan asteroids orbit about the Sun at roughly the same heliocentric distance as Jupiter. Differences in the observed visible reflection spectra range from neutral to red, with no ultra-red objects found so far. ...
Space weathering and the color–color diagram of Plutinos and Jupiter Trojans
(Elsevier Inc, 2015-03)
The Jupiter Trojan asteroids and the Plutinos are two peculiar populations. They are dynamically resonant, therefore with heliocentric distances relatively bounded for long timescales, as a farely general rule. As a ...
