The Resolved Asteroid Program - Size, shape, and pole of (52) Europa
W. J. Merline, J. D. Drummond, B. Carry +14
With the adaptive optics (AO) system on the 10 m Keck-II telescope, we acquired a high quality set of 84 images at 14 epochs of asteroid (52) Europa on 2005 January 20. The epochs…
Physical properties of ESA Rosetta target asteroid (21) Lutetia: Shape and flyby geometry
B. Carry, M. Kaasalainen, C. Leyrat +22
Aims. We determine the physical properties (spin state and shape) of asteroid (21) Lutetia, target of the ESA Rosetta mission, to help in preparing for observations during the flyb…
The triaxial ellipsoid dimensions, rotational pole, and bulk density of ESA Rosetta target asteroid (21) Lutetia
J. D. Drummond, A. Conrad, W. J. Merline +6
We seek the best size estimates of the asteroid (21) Lutetia, the direction of its spin axis, and its bulk density, assuming its shape is well described by a smooth featureless tri…
