A large topographic feature on the surface of the trans-Neptunian object (307261) 2002 MS measured from stellar occultations
F. L. Rommel, F. Braga-Ribas, J. L. Ortiz +201
This work aims at constraining the size, shape, and geometric albedo of the dwarf planet candidate 2002 MS4 through the analysis of nine stellar occultation events. Using multichor…
The changing material around (2060) Chiron from an occultation on 2022 December 15
J. L. Ortiz, C. L. Pereira, B. Sicardy +30
We could accurately predict the shadow path and successfully observe an occultation of a bright star by Chiron on 2022 December 15. The Kottamia Astronomical Observatory in Egypt d…
Physical properties of the slow-rotating near-Earth asteroid (2059) Baboquivari from one apparition
Orhan Erece, Irek Khamitov, Murat Kaplan +6
In this study, we carried out photometric, spectroscopic, and for the first time, polarimetric observations of the Amor-type near-Earth asteroid (2059) Baboquivari. Our findings re…
The two rings of (50000) Quaoar
C. L. Pereira, B. Sicardy, B. E. Morgado +66
Quaoar is a classical Trans-Neptunian Object (TNO) with an area equivalent diameter of 1,100 km and an orbital semi-major axis of 43.3 astronomical units. Based on stellar occultat…
Occultation Portal: a web-based platform for data collection and analysis of stellar occultations
Y. Kilic, F. Braga-Ribas, M. Kaplan +9
Recording a stellar occultation is one powerful method that gives direct information about the physical properties of the occulting solar system object. In order to obtain reliable…
Physical properties of the trans-Neptunian object (38628) Huya from a multi-chord stellar occultation
P. Santos-Sanz, J. L. Ortiz, B. Sicardy +85
Within our international program to obtain accurate physical properties of trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) we predicted a stellar occultation by the TNO (38628) Huya of the star Gai…
SORA: Stellar Occultation Reduction and Analysis
A. R. Gomes-Júnior, B. E. Morgado, G. Benedetti-Rossi +6
The stellar occultation technique provides competitive accuracy in determining the sizes, shapes, astrometry, etc., of the occulting body, comparable to in-situ observations by spa…
Full orbital solution for the binary system in the northern Galactic disc microlensing event Gaia16aye
Łukasz Wyrzykowski, P. Mróz, K. A. Rybicki +182
Gaia16aye was a binary microlensing event discovered in the direction towards the northern Galactic disc and was one of the first microlensing events detected and alerted to by the…
