Prominent mid-infrared excess of the dwarf planet (136472) Makemake discovered by JWST/MIRI indicates ongoing activity
Csaba Kiss, Thomas G. Müller, Anikó Farkas-Takács +18
We report on the discovery of a very prominent mid-infrared (18-25 μm) excess associated with the trans-Neptunian dwarf planet (136472) Makemake. The excess, detected by the MIRI i…
The visible and thermal light curve of the large Kuiper belt object (50000) Quaoar
C. Kiss, T. G. Müller, G. Marton +7
Recent stellar occultations have allowed accurate instantaneous size and apparent shape determinations of the large Kuiper belt object (50000)~Quaoar and the detection of two rings…
TNOs are Cool! A Survey of the transneptunian Region XV. Physical characteristics of 23 resonant transneptunian and scattered disk objects
A. Farkas-Takács, Cs. Kiss, E. Vilenius +7
The goal of this work is to determine the physical characteristics of resonant, detached and scattered disk objects in the transneptunian region, observed mainly in the framework o…
"TNOs are Cool": A survey of the trans-Neptunian region XIV. Size/albedo characterization of the Haumea family observed with Herschel and Spitzer
E. Vilenius, J. Stansberry, T. Müller +14
A group of trans-Neptunian objects (TNO) are dynamically related to the dwarf planet 136108 Haumea. Ten of them show strong indications of water ice on their surfaces, are assumed…
Tomographic inversion of gravity gradient field for a synthetic Itokawa model
Liisa-Ida Sorsa, Mika Takala, Patrick Bambach +6
This article investigates reconstructing the internal mass density of a numerical asteroid model using the gradient of a simulated gravity field as synthetic measurement data. Our…
Bistatic full-wave radar tomography detects deep interior voids, cracks and boulders in a rubble-pile asteroid model
Liisa-Ida Sorsa, Mika Takala, Patrick Bambach +3
In this paper, we investigate full-wave computed radar tomography (CRT) using a rubble-pile asteroid model in which a realistic shape (Itokawa) is coupled with a synthetic material…
