A Search for Technosignatures Around 11,680 Stars with the Green Bank Telescope at 1.15-1.73 GHz

Jean-Luc Margot, Megan G. Li, Pavlo Pinchuk +78

We conducted a search for narrowband radio signals over four observing sessions in 2020-2023 with the L-band receiver (1.15-1.73 GHz) of the 100 m diameter Green Bank Telescope. We…

Thermal Models of Asteroids with Two-band Combinations of Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer Cryogenic Data

Emily A. Whittaker, Jean-Luc Margot, Adrian L. H. Lam +1

We used the reparameterized Near-Earth Asteroid Thermal Model to model observations of a curated set of over 4000 asteroids from the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer in two wave…

Determination of 1929 Asteroid Rotation Periods from WISE Data

Adrian L. H. Lam, Jean-Luc Margot, Emily Whittaker +1

We used 22 m (W4) Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) observations of 4420 asteroids to analyze lightcurves and determined spin period estimates for 1929 asteroids. We fi…

Analysis of four-band WISE observations of asteroids

Nathan Myhrvold, Pavlo Pinchuk, Jean-Luc Margot

We analyzed 82,548 carefully curated observations of 4420 asteroids with Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) four-band data to produce estimates of diameters and infrared em…

U.S. Test System with High Spatial and Temporal Resolution for Renewable Integration Studies

Yixing Xu, Nathan Myhrvold, Dhileep Sivam +9

Planning for power systems with high penetrations of variable renewable energy requires higher spatial and temporal granularity. However, most publicly available test systems are o…

Response to Wright et al. 2018: Even more serious problems with NEOWISE

Nathan P. Myhrvold

Wright et al. 2018 (W2018) responded to certain criticisms of the NEOWISE results raised by Myhrvold (2018a, 2018b) in a preprint submitted for publication to Icarus. This paper re…

Asteroid thermal modeling in the presence of reflected sunlight with an application to WISE/NEOWISE observational data

Nathan Myhrvold

This study addresses thermal modeling of asteroids with a new derivation of the Near Earth Asteroid Thermal (NEATM) model which correctly accounts for the presence of reflected sun…

Comparing NEO Search Telescopes

Nathan Myhrvold

Multiple terrestrial and space-based telescopes have been proposed for detecting and tracking near-Earth objects (NEOs). Detailed simulations of the search performance of these sys…
