Dynamical implications of the recently detected feature around Quaoar and constraints on the presence of additional satellites
Gustavo Madeira, Leandro Esteves, Bruno E. Morgado +4
A recently reported opaque feature in the Quaoar system, detected during the 25 June 2025 stellar occultation, has been interpreted as either a 15 km-radius satellite or a dense, s…
Constraining the size, shape, and albedo of the large Trans-Neptunian Object (28978) Ixion with multi-chord stellar occultations
Y. Kilic, F. Braga-Ribas, C. L. Pereira +81
Trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) are among the most primitive remnants of the early Solar System, and constraining their sizes, shapes, albedos, and surface properties is essential f…
Dynamical environment and stability around Centaur (2060) Chiron
Gustavo Madeira, Bruno Morgado, Chrystian Pereira +3
A recent stellar occultation revealed that the Centaur (2060) Chiron hosts a broad disk extending beyond ~200 km from its centre, embedding three ring-like structures (Chi1R, Chi2R…
The rings of (2060) Chiron: Evidence of an evolving system
C. L. Pereira, F. Braga-Ribas, B. Sicardy +54
The centaur (2060) Chiron has long been a candidate for hosting material in orbit, based on occultation and photometric and spectroscopic data. Here, we present a multichord stella…
JWST occultation reveals unforeseen complexity in Chariklo's ring system
Pablo Santos-Sanz, Altair R. Gomes-Júnior, Bruno E. Morgado +25
Ring systems have been discovered around several small bodies in the outer Solar System through stellar occultations. While such measurements provide key information about ring geo…
A high geometric albedo and small size of the Haumea cluster member (24835) 1995 SM55 from a stellar occultation and photometric observations
J. L. Ortiz, N. Morales, B. Sicardy +98
Trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) are among the most ancient bodies of the solar system. Understanding their physical properties is key to constraining their origin and the evolution…
