Col-OSSOS: Evidence for a compositional gradient inherited from the protoplanetary disk?
Michael Marsset, Wesley C. Fraser, Megan E. Schwamb +7
In the present-day Kuiper Belt, the number of compositional classes and the orbital distributions of these classes hold important cosmogonic implications for the Solar System. In a…
Col-OSSOS: The Two Types of Kuiper Belt Surfaces
Wesley C. Fraser, Rosemary E. Pike Michael Marsset, Megan E. Schwamb +10
The Colours of the Outer Solar System Origins Survey (Col-OSSOS) has gathered high quality, near-simultaneous (g-r) and (r-J) colours of 92 Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs) with (u-g) an…
Col-OSSOS: The Distribution of Surface Classes in Neptune's Resonances
Rosemary E. Pike, Wesley C. Fraser, Kathryn Volk +9
The distribution of surface classes of resonant trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) provides constraints on the protoplanetesimal disk and giant planet migration. To better understand t…
A Predicted Dearth of Majority Hypervolatile Ices in Oort Cloud Comets
C. M. Lisse, G. R. Gladstone, L. A. Young +30
We present new, ice species-specific New Horizons/Alice upper gas coma production limits from the 01 Jan 2019 MU69/Arrokoth flyby of Gladstone et al. (2021) and use them to make pr…
OSSOS XXV: Large Populations and Scattering-Sticking in the Distant Transneptunian Resonances
B. L. Crompvoets, S. M. Lawler, K. Volk +8
There have been 77 TNOs discovered to be librating in the distant transneptunian resonances (beyond the 2:1 resonance, at semimajor axes greater than 47.7~AU) in four well-characte…
Anomalous Flux in the Cosmic Optical Background Detected With New Horizons Observations
Tod R. Lauer, Marc Postman, John R. Spencer +27
We used New Horizons LORRI images to measure the optical-band () sky brightness within a high galactic-latitude field selected to have reduced diffu…
