Photometric survey, modelling, and scaling of long-period and low-amplitude asteroids
A. Marciniak, P. Bartczak, T. Müller +40
The available set of spin and shape modelled asteroids is strongly biased against slowly rotating targets and those with low lightcurve amplitudes. As a consequence of these select…
Against the biases in spins and shapes of asteroids
A. Marciniak, F. Pilcher, D. Oszkiewicz +21
Physical studies of asteroids depend on an availability of lightcurve data. Targets that are easy to observe and analyse naturally have more data available, so their synodic period…
2009 Superoutburst of Dwarf Nova 1RXS J053234.9+624755
A. Rutkowski, A. Olech, R. Poleski +4
We present photometric observations of the dwarf nova 1RXS J053234.9+624755. We performed a detailed analysis of the superoutburst that occurred in August 2009. We found the superh…
Absolute properties of the main-sequence eclipsing binary FM Leo
M. Ratajczak, T. Kwiatkowski, A. Schwarzenberg-Czerny +9
First spectroscopic and new photometric observations of the eclipsing binary FM Leo are presented. The main aims were to determine orbital and stellar parameters of two components…
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…
Future evolution of 12P and other Halley-type comets in near-polar orbits
M. Królikowska, P. Kankiewicz, P. Wajer
We investigate the future 100 kyr evolution of six selected HTCs to show their basic commonalities and differences in dynamical behaviour. This includes estimating the probability…
