“The ESD is thought to consist of objects with q > 38 AU (Gladman et al., 2002) which are thus beyond the gravitational influence of Neptune; objects with smaller q are thought to be part of the SD (Duncan and Levison, 1997), or, to be more precise, a ‘Neptune Scattered Disk.’”

“In other words it appears unlikely that one can produce an object like 2003 UB313 and leave the Kuiper Belt intact and the observations seem to favor a looser cluster (Morbidelli and Levison, 2004).”

“Proposals for the perturber required to have created Sedna’s orbit have included sibling stars in the sun’s birth cluster (Brown et al. 2004; Brasser et al. 2006; Dukes & Krumholz 2012), a single passing star (Morbidelli & Levison 2004; Kenyon & Bromley 2004; Rickman et al. 2004) as well as a small…”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
