Material Around the Centaur (2060) Chiron from the 2018 November 28 UT Stellar Occultation

Amanda A. Sickafoose, Stephen E. Levine, Amanda S. Bosh +5

A stellar occultation of Gaia DR3 2646598228351156352 by the Centaur (2060) Chiron was observed from the South African Astronomical Observatory on 2018 November 28 UT. Here we pres…

Refined physical parameters for Chariklo's body and rings from stellar occultations observed between 2013 and 2020

B. E. Morgado, B. Sicardy, F. Braga-Ribas +78

The Centaur (10199) Chariklo has the first rings system discovered around a small object. It was first observed using stellar occultation in 2013. Stellar occultations allow the de…

Size and Shape Constraints of (486958) Arrokoth from Stellar Occultations

Marc W. Buie, Simon B. Porter, Peter Tamblyn +130

We present the results from four stellar occultations by (486958) Arrokoth, the flyby target of the New Horizons extended mission. Three of the four efforts led to positive detecti…

The fast spin of near-Earth asteroid (455213) 2001 OE84, revisited after 14 years: constraints on internal structure

David Polishook, Nicholas Moskovitz, Audrey Thirouin +5

At a mean diameter of ~650 m, the near-Earth asteroid (455213) 2001 OE84 (OE84 for short) has a rapid rotation period of 0.486542+-0.000002 hours, which is uncommon for asteroids l…
