Physical modelling of near-Earth asteroid (23187) 2000 PN9 with ground-based optical and radar observations
L. Dover, S. C. Lowry, A. Rożek +19
We present a physical model and spin-state analysis of the potentially hazardous asteroid (23187) 2000 PN9. As part of a long-term campaign to make direct detections of the YORP ef…
Physical properties of near-Earth asteroid (2102) Tantalus from multi-wavelength observations
Agata Rożek, Stephen C. Lowry, Benjamin Rozitis +20
Between 2010 and 2017 we have collected new optical and radar observations of the potentially hazardous asteroid (2102)~Tantalus from the ESO NTT and Danish telescopes at the La Si…
The Effect of Aspect Changes on Near-Earth Asteroid Phase Curves
Samuel L. Jackson, Benjamin Rozitis, Lord R. Dover +4
Phase curves of asteroids are typically considered to depend solely on the scattering properties of airless particulate surfaces and the size of the object being studied. In this s…
Detection of the YORP Effect on the contact-binary (68346) 2001 KZ66 from combined radar and optical observations
Tarik J. Zegmott, S. C. Lowry, A. Rożek +7
The YORP effect is a small thermal-radiation torque experienced by small asteroids, and is considered to be crucial in their physical and dynamical evolution. It is important to un…
Asteroid Photometry with PIRATE: Optimizations and Techniques for Small Aperture Telescopes
Samuel L. Jackson, Ulrich C. Kolb, Simon F. Green
Small aperture telescopes provide the opportunity to conduct high frequency, targeted observations of near-Earth Asteroids that are not feasible with larger facilities due to highl…
(6478) Gault: Physical characterization of an active main-belt asteroid
Maxime Devogèle, Marin Ferrais, Emmanuel Jehin +22
In December 2018, the main-belt asteroid (6478)~Gault was reported to display activity. Gault is an asteroid belonging to the Phocaea dynamical family and was not previously known…
