Stellar Diameters and Temperatures V. Eleven Newly Characterized Exoplanet Host Stars

Kaspar von Braun, Tabetha S. Boyajian, Gerard T. van Belle +17

We use near-infrared interferometric data coupled with trigonometric parallax values and spectral energy distribution fitting to directly determine stellar radii, effective tempera…

De-biased Populations of Kuiper Belt Objects from the Deep Ecliptic Survey

E. R. Adams, A. A. S. Gulbis, J. L. Elliot +4

The Deep Ecliptic Survey (DES) discovered hundreds of Kuiper Belt objects from 1998-2005. Follow-up observations yielded 304 objects with good dynamical classifications (Classical,…

Asteroid spin-axis longitudes from the Lowell Observatory database

E. Bowell, D. A. Oszkiewicz, L. H. Wasserman +3

By analyzing brightness variation with ecliptic longitude and using the Lowell Observatory photometric database, we estimate spin-axis longitudes for more than 350 000 asteroids. H…
