The Scientific Impact of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) for Solar System Science

Rubin Observatory LSST Solar System Science Collaboration, R. Lynne Jones, Michelle T. Bannister +18

Vera C. Rubin Observatory will be a key facility for small body science in planetary astronomy over the next decade. It will carry out the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST), o…

Discovering Earth's transient moons with the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope

Grigori Fedorets, Mikael Granvik, R. Lynne Jones +2

Earth's temporarily-captured orbiters (TCOs) are a sub-population of near-Earth objects (NEOs). TCOs can provide constraints for NEO population models in the 1--10-metre-diameter r…

Discovery of an intermediate-luminosity red transient in M51 and its likely dust-obscured, infrared-variable progenitor

Jacob E. Jencson, Scott M. Adams, Howard E. Bond +49

We present the discovery of an optical transient (OT) in Messier 51, designated M51 OT2019-1 (also ZTF19aadyppr, AT 2019abn, ATLAS19bzl), by the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF). Th…

Enabling Deep All-Sky Searches of Outer Solar System Objects

Mario Jurić, R. Lynne Jones, J. Bryce Kalmbach +12

A foundational goal of the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) is to map the Solar System small body populations that provide key windows into understanding of its formation and…
