Orbits and resonances of the regular moons of Neptune

Marina Brozović, Mark R. Showalter, Robert A. Jacobson & 3 others

What they foundIntegrated orbit fits for Neptune's inner regular moons; Naiad and Thalassa are locked in an unusual resonance.

Why it mattersIt provides the best orbits for the inner moon family that includes Hippocamp.

Family-level context: this paper studies Neptune's inner regular moons, not Hippocamp specifically.

What they studied

Telescope, Voyager 2 and Hubble astrometry from 1981 to 2016.

Our own words, our own drawings

Summaries are written by us from each paper’s abstract, not copied. Diagrams are our own simplified drawings, not figures from the papers.

Preprint vs. peer-reviewed

“Peer-reviewed” means arXiv lists a journal reference for the paper. Everything else is marked “Preprint”: shared openly, possibly before or without journal review.
