The Birth Environment of the Solar System (2010, methodology): “A close encounter at approximately this distance could also help account for the observed edge of the Kuiper Belt at r ∼ 50 AU.”
Oort cloud and Scattered Disc formation during a late dynamical instability in the Solar System (2012, background): “Two solutions have been proposed to remedy this problem: forming part of the OC while the Sun was still in its birth cluster (Fernández and Brunini, 2000; Brasser et al., 2006, 2012; Kaib and Quinn, 2008), or forming the OC by the capture of comets from other stars (Levison et al., 2010).”
Origin and Evolution of Short-period Comets (2017, background): “…Kuiper belt (Malhotra 1993, Gomes 2003, Hahn & Malhotra 2005; Levison et al. 2008; Dawson & Murray-Clay 2012; Nesvorný 2015a,b; NV16), scattered disk (BM13, Kaib & Sheppard 2016, Nesvorný et al. 2016), and Oort cloud (Brasser et al. 2006, 2007, 2008; Levison et al. 2010; Kaib et al. 2011; BM13).”
Origin of the structure of the Kuiper belt during a dynamical instability in the orbits of Uranus and Neptune (2007, background): “We believe that this object represents a totally different population that had a different origin (Morbidelli and Levison, 2004; Kenyon and Bromley, 2004a; Brasser et al., 2006 ).”
Building the terrestrial planets: Constrained accretion in the inner Solar System (2009, background): “To populate the inner and outer classical Oort cloud, the current galactic environment (or one moderately denser) is required (Brasser et al. 2006; Kaib & Quinn 2008).”
