"Asteroids, KBOs and other debris in planetary systems"

Renu Malhotra

This talk will have two parts. In part one, I will describe a nonlinear secular perturbation analysis that provides a powerful method for constraining the locations of sub-jovian mass planets and planetesimal debris belts in exo-planetary systems known to harbor multiple jovian mass planets. In part two, I will describe some new results on the long term chaotic diffusion of resonant Kuiper Belt objects at the edge of our Solar System. Useful Link:
