The first observed stellar occultations by the irregular satellite (Saturn IX) Phoebe and improved rotational period

A. R. Gomes-Júnior, M. Assafin, F. Braga-Ribas +24

We report six stellar occultations by (Saturn IX) Phoebe, an irregular satellite of Saturn, obtained between mid-2017 and mid-2019. The 2017 July 06 event is the first stellar occu…

Stellar Occultations by Transneptunian objects: from Predictions to Observations and Prospects for the Future

J. L. Ortiz, B. Sicardy, J. I. B. Camargo +2

In terms of scientific output, the best way to study solar system bodies is sending spacecraft to make in-situ measurements or to observe at close distance. Probably, the second be…
