Orbits of very distant asteroid satellites
K. Minker, B. Carry, F. Vachier +36
The very wide binary asteroid (VWBA) population is a small subset of the population of known binary and multiple asteroids made of systems with very widely orbiting satellites and…
Secular change in the spin states of asteroids due to radiation and gravitation torques. New detections and updates of the YORP effect
J. Ďurech, D. Vokrouhlický, P. Pravec +21
The rotation state of small asteroids is affected in the long term by perturbing torques of gravitational and radiative origin (the YORP effect). Direct observational evidence of t…
Photometry of the Didymos system across the DART impact apparition
Nicholas Moskovitz, Cristina Thomas, Petr Pravec +78
On 26 September 2022, the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft impacted Dimorphos, the satellite of binary near-Earth asteroid (65803) Didymos. This demonstrated the…
Shape model and spin state of non-principal axis rotator (5247) Krylov
H. -J. Lee, J. Ďurech, M. -J. Kim +12
Context. The study of non-principal axis (NPA) rotators can provide important clues to the evolution of the spin state of asteroids. However, so far, very few studies have focused…
A satellite orbit drift in binary near-Earth asteroids (66391) 1999 KW4 and (88710) 2001 SL9 -- Indication of the BYORP effect
P. Scheirich, P. Pravec, P. Kušnirák +34
We obtained thorough photometric observations of two binary near-Earth asteroids (66391) Moshup = 1999 KW4 and (88710) 2001 SL9 taken from 2000 to 2019 and derived physical and dyn…
Asteroid pairs: a complex picture
P. Pravec, P. Fatka, D. Vokrouhlický +45
We studied 93 asteroid pairs. We estimated times elapsed since separation of pair members that are between 7*10^3 and a few 10^6 yr. We derived the rotation periods for all the pri…
