New asteroid clusters and evidence of collisional fragmentation in the L5 Trojan cloud of Mars
Apostolos A. Christou, Nikos Georgakarakos, Matija Cuk +3
Context. Trojan asteroids of Mars date from an early phase of solar system evolution. Based on a sample of <10 asteroids, MT distribution has been previously shown to be both asymm…
Feasibility of meteor surveying from a Venus orbiter
Apostolos A. Christou, Maria Gritsevich
Meteor and bolide phenomena caused by the atmospheric ablation of incoming meteoroids are predicted to occur at the planet Venus. Their systematic observation would allow to measur…
Deconvolving the complex structure of the asteroid belt
Stanley F. Dermott, Dan Li, Apostolos A. Christou
The asteroid belt is a unique source of information on some of the most important questions facing solar system science. These questions include the sizes, numbers, types and orbit…
Physical and dynamical properties of selected Earth co-orbital asteroids
Galin B. Borisov, Apostolos A. Christou, Gordana Apostolovska
We present our investigations of the physical and dynamical properties of selected Earth co-orbital asteroids. The photometric optical light curves as well as rotation periods and…
Chaotic diffusion of asteroids in the exterior 1:2 mean motion resonance with Mars
Apostolos A. Christou, Stanley F. Dermott, Dan Li
The inner asteroid belt between 2.1 and 2.5 au is of particular dynamical significance because it is the dominant source of both chondritic meteorites and near-Earth asteroids. Thi…
Constraints on the structure and seasonal variations of Triton's atmosphere from the 5 October 2017 stellar occultation and previous observations
J. Marques Oliveira, B. Sicardy, A. R. Gomes-Júnior +234
A stellar occultation by Neptune's main satellite, Triton, was observed on 5 October 2017 from Europe, North Africa, and the USA. We derived 90 light curves from this event, 42 of…
