Untangling the Near-IR Spectral Features in the Protoplanetary Environment of KH 15D
Nicole A. Arulanantham, William Herbst, Martha S. Gilmore +2
We report on Gemini/GNIRS observations of the binary T Tauri system V582 Mon (KH 15D) at three orbital phases. These spectra allow us to untangle five components of the system: the…
New Extreme Trans-Neptunian Objects: Towards a Super-Earth in the Outer Solar System
Scott S. Sheppard, Chad Trujillo
We are conducting a survey for extreme solar system objects to understand Sedna and 2012 VP113 and determine if an unknown massive planet exists in the outer solar system. Two new…
OSSOS: IV. Discovery of a dwarf planet candidate in the 9:2 resonance with Neptune
Michele T. Bannister, Mike Alexandersen, Susan D. Benecchi +32
We report the discovery and orbit of a new dwarf planet candidate, 2015 RR, by the Outer Solar System Origins Survey (OSSOS). 2015 RR's orbit is eccentric ($e=0.586…
Beyond the Kuiper Belt Edge: New High Perihelion Trans-Neptunian Objects With Moderate Semi-major Axes and Eccentricities
Scott S. Sheppard, Chadwick Trujillo, David J. Tholen
We have been conducting a survey for distant solar system objects beyond the Kuiper Belt edge (~50 AU) with new wide-field cameras on the Subaru 8 meter and CTIO 4 meter telescopes…
