NEOWISE Data Processing and Color Corrections for Near-Earth Asteroid Observations
Samuel A. Myers, Ellen S. Howell, Yanga R. Fernández +4
The Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer and NEOWISE missions are a key source of thermal data for near-Earth asteroids (NEAs). These missions, which utilized a space-based platform…
Inconsistencies in Simple Thermal Model Results for Near-Earth Asteroids between Infrared Telescope Facility SpeX and NEOWISE Data
Samuel A. Myers, Ellen S. Howell, Christopher Magri +4
Understanding the properties of near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) is key for many aspects of planetary science, particularly planetary defense. Our current knowledge of NEA sizes and reg…
Constraining the Limitations of NEATM-like Models: A Case Study with Near-Earth Asteroid (285263) 1998 QE2
Samuel A. Myers, Ellen S. Howell, Christopher Magri +4
Near-Earth Asteroids (NEAs) are a key testbed for investigations into planet formation, asteroid dynamics, and planetary defense initiatives. These studies rely on understanding NE…
Evidence of surface heterogeneity on active asteroid (3200) Phaethon
Eric MacLennan, Sean Marshall, Mikael Granvik
Thermal infrared emission and thermophysical modeling techniques are powerful tools in deciphering the surface properties of asteroids. The near-Earth asteroid (3200) Phaethon is a…
Arecibo Radar Observations of Near-Earth Asteroid (3200) Phaethon During the 2017 Apparition
Patrick A. Taylor, Edgard G. Rivera-Valentin, Lance A. M. Benner +8
We report Arecibo S-band (2380 MHz; 12.6 cm) radar observations of near-Earth asteroid (3200) Phaethon during the December 2017 apparition when Phaethon passed within 0.07 au of Ea…
Thermal Properties and an Improved Shape Model for Near-Earth Asteroid (162421) 2000 ET70
Sean E. Marshall, Ellen S. Howell, Christopher Magri +8
We present thermal properties and an improved shape model for potentially hazardous asteroid (162421) 2000 ET70. In addition to the radar data from 2000 ET70's apparition in 2012,…
