Scientific paper

Hierarchical stability of the outer solar system is monitored through its 3-body subsystems by using numerically computed ephemerides for 5×106yr. It is found that the stability parameters of Sun-Jupiter-Saturn and Sun-Uranus-Neptune oscillate in anti-phase in ≡1.1×106yr. The mechanism responsible for this locking is a secular resonance between Uranus' perihelion and Jupiter's aphelion: the difference between the two librates within ≡±70° with the same period of ≡1.1×106yr.
