Abstract: In a recent breakthrough, Dimitrov solved the Schinzel-Zassenhaus Conjecture. We follow his approach and adapt it to certain dynamical systems arising from polynomials of the form $T^p+c$ where $p$ is a prime number and where the orbit of $0$ is finite. For example, if $p=2$, and $0$ is periodic under $T^2+c$ with $cinmathbbRsmallsetminus-2$, we prove a lower bound for the local canonical height of a wandering algebraic integer that is inversely proportional to the field degree. From this we are able to deduce a lower bound for the canonical height of a wandering point that decays like the inverse square of the field degree.
