The Dense, Rocky Core of Haumea Revealed by Satellite Dynamics
Benjamin Proudfoot, Darin Ragozzine, Will Grundy +2
The icy dwarf planets in the outer solar system are among the most enigmatic bodies known, showing activity ranging from atmospheric resurfacing to possible cryovolcanism. Yet the…
Kilometre-scale Jovian moon characterized for a potential JUICE flyby
Juan Luis Rizos, Jose Maria Gomez-Limon, Yucel Kilic +51
Jupiter's irregular satellites are thought to be relics of early Solar System planetesimals. However, their small sizes, large distances from Earth and close angular proximity to J…
Size, shape, density, and atmospheric limit of (50000) Quaoar revealed from 14 years of stellar occultation
Giuliano Margoti, Felipe Braga-Ribas, José Luis Ortiz +173
We present results from 28 stellar occultations by the large Trans-Neptunian Object (50000) Quaoar registered between 2018 and 2025. By performing a joint analysis of this occultat…
Triaxial shapes and densities of G!kún||'hòmdímà, Haumea, and Varda from stellar occultations
Benjamin Proudfoot, Will Grundy, Flavia Luane Rommel +2
The shapes and densities of mid-sized and large trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) are pivotal for understanding a variety of important aspects of planet formation. In this work, we pr…
Constraining the size, shape, and albedo of the large Trans-Neptunian Object (28978) Ixion with multi-chord stellar occultations
Y. Kilic, F. Braga-Ribas, C. L. Pereira +81
Trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) are among the most primitive remnants of the early Solar System, and constraining their sizes, shapes, albedos, and surface properties is essential f…
