Unbiased Inclination Distributions for Objects in the Kuiper Belt

Unbiased Inclination Distributions for Objects in the Kuiper Belt

Using data from the Deep Ecliptic Survey (DES), we investigate the inclination distributions of objects in the Kuiper Belt. We present a derivation for observational bias removal and use this procedure to generate unbiased inclination distributions for Kuiper Belt objects (KBOs) of different DES dyn...
