Why Is Paul Wiegert Influential?

(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, Paul Arnold Wiegert is a Canadian astronomer, discoverer of minor planets and professor at the University of Western Ontario. Wiegert studies unusual orbits of both observed objects and theorised classes of objects, for example, one early paper considers not-known-to-exist planets orbiting the nearby Alpha Centauri star system, while later papers extend that case to more general planetary stability in general binary systems . This work in particular should be of interest to science fiction authors inventing universes.
