1I/`Oumuamua as a Tidal Disruption Fragment From a Binary Star System
Matija Ćuk
1I/`Oumuamua is the first known interstellar small body, probably being only about 100~m in size. Against expectations based on comets, `Oumuamua does not show any activity and has…
Ground-based Characterization of Hayabusa2 Mission Target Asteroid 162173 Ryugu: Constraining Mineralogical Composition in Preparation for Spacecraft Operations
Lucille Le Corre, Juan A. Sanchez, Vishnu Reddy +7
Asteroids that are targets of spacecraft missions are interesting because they present us with an opportunity to validate ground-based spectral observations. One such object is nea…
Possible detection of a bimodal cloud distribution in the atmosphere of HAT-P-32\,A\,b from multi-band photometry
Jeremy Tregloan-Reed, John Southworth, L. Mancini +6
We present high-precision photometry of eight separate transit events in the HAT-P-32 planetary system. One transit event was observed simultaneously by two telescopes of which one…
A Search for Temporal Changes on Pluto and Charon
J. D. Hofgartner, B. J. Buratti, S. L. Devins +12
A search for temporal changes on Pluto and Charon was motivated by (1) the discovery of young surfaces in the Pluto system that imply ongoing or recent geologic activity, (2) the d…
Finding the Needles in the Haystacks: High-Fidelity Models of the Modern and Archean Solar System for Simulating Exoplanet Observations
Aki Roberge, Maxime J. Rizzo, Andrew P. Lincowski +10
We present two state-of-the-art models of the solar system, one corresponding to the present day and one to the Archean Eon 3.5 billion years ago. Each model contains spatial and s…
The New Horizons and Hubble Space Telescope Search For Rings, Dust, and Debris in the Pluto-Charon System
Tod R. Lauer, Henry B. Throop, Mark R. Showalter +11
We searched for dust or debris rings in the Pluto-Charon system before, during, and after the New Horizons encounter. Methodologies included searching for back-scattered light duri…
