Summary by Ground News

Vera Rubin Telescope Could Detect Mars, Mercury And Pluto Sized Planets from 2025-2035. Researchers estimate that the number of captured free-floating planets in the outer solar system with mass strictly greater than that of Mars is <1.2. If the statistics from Sumi et al. (2023) hold to significantly lower masses, we should detect captured dwarf planets early in the LSST observing program.

Vera Rubin Telescope Could Detect Mars, Mercury And Pluto Sized Planets from 2025-2035

Researchers estimate that the number of captured free-floating planets in the outer solar system with mass strictly greater than that of Mars is ∼1.2 and that the number of such planets with a strict cutoff at the mass of Mercury is ∼2.4. When they instead adopt logarithmic bins centered at the Mars mass and the ...
