Testing the isotropy of the Dark Energy Survey's extreme trans-Neptunian objects
Pedro H. Bernardinelli, Gary M. Bernstein, Masao Sako +19
We test whether the population of "extreme" trans-Neptunian objects (eTNOs) detected in the Y4 Dark Energy Survey (DES) data exhibit azimuthal asymmetries which might be evidence o…

Dynamical Classification of Trans-Neptunian Objects Detected by the Dark Energy Survey
T. Khain, J. C. Becker, Hsing Wen Lin +52
The outer Solar System contains a large number of small bodies (known as trans-Neptunian objects or TNOs) that exhibit diverse types of dynamical behavior. The classification of bo…

Trans-Neptunian objects found in the first four years of the Dark Energy Survey
Pedro H. Bernardinelli, Gary M. Bernstein, Masao Sako +61
We present a catalog of 316 trans-Neptunian bodies detected by the Dark Energy Survey (DES). These objects include 245 discoveries by DES (139 not previously published) detected in…
