How might a planet between Mars and Jupiter influence the inner solar system? effects on orbital motion, obliquity, and eccentricity
As implied by exoplanet population censuses, super-Earths are extremely common in the galaxy. In the solar system, models suggest that the formation of an Earth-to-super-Earth mass planet could have readily occurred in the inner regions ( AU) if such body is able to survive the early intense and chaotic intertaction episodes of the Jovian worlds with the rest of the solar system. In this study, we test the consequences of such a hypothesis using a three-dimensional (3D) N-Rigid-Body integrator. With a 3D model in which the planet is modeled as a rigid body to account for its finite size and rotation, we simulate the orbital evolution of the three inner terrestrial planets over 2 Myr periods. Our results show that an additional super-Earth sized planet between 2 and 3.5 AU would have (i) destabilized Earth’s orbit over timescales of 1-2 Myrs, (ii) increased Mars’s obliquity by , and (iii) perturbed the eccentricity of Venus by up to . Our study explores an “alternate fate” of the terrestrial planets and our results suggest that the formation of a super-Earth in the inner solar system would have exerted grave consequences for the orbital dynamics and habitability of the terrestrial planets.
期刊介绍:
Icarus is devoted to the publication of original contributions in the field of Solar System studies. Manuscripts reporting the results of new research - observational, experimental, or theoretical - concerning the astronomy, geology, meteorology, physics, chemistry, biology, and other scientific aspects of our Solar System or extrasolar systems are welcome. The journal generally does not publish papers devoted exclusively to the Sun, the Earth, celestial mechanics, meteoritics, or astrophysics. Icarus does not publish papers that provide "improved" versions of Bode''s law, or other numerical relations, without a sound physical basis. Icarus does not publish meeting announcements or general notices. Reviews, historical papers, and manuscripts describing spacecraft instrumentation may be considered, but only with prior approval of the editor. An entire issue of the journal is occasionally devoted to a single subject, usually arising from a conference on the same topic. The language of publication is English. American or British usage is accepted, but not a mixture of these.
