Asteroid sizes determined with thermophysical model and stellar occultations
A. Choukroun, A. Marciniak, J. Äurech +165
Context. The sizes of many asteroids, especially slowly rotating, low-amplitude targets, remain poorly constrained due to selection effects. These biases limit the availability of…
Scaling slowly rotating asteroids by stellar occultations
A. Marciniak, J. Äurech, A. Choukroun +176
As evidenced by recent survey results, majority of asteroids are slow rotators (P>12 h), but lack spin and shape models due to selection bias. This bias is skewing our overall unde…
The multichord stellar occultation on 2019 October 22 by the trans-Neptunian object (84922) 2003 VS
M. Vara-Lubiano, G. Benedetti-Rossi, P. Santos-Sanz +60
We predicted, observed, and analyzed the multichord stellar occultation of the Second Gaia Data Release (Gaia DR2) source 3449076721168026624 (m = 14.1 mag) by the plutino obje…
Constraints on the structure and seasonal variations of Triton's atmosphere from the 5 October 2017 stellar occultation and previous observations
J. Marques Oliveira, B. Sicardy, A. R. Gomes-Júnior +234
A stellar occultation by Neptune's main satellite, Triton, was observed on 5 October 2017 from Europe, North Africa, and the USA. We derived 90 light curves from this event, 42 of…
