Detection and characterisation of binary asteroid candidates through stellar occultations
R. Lallemand, J. Desmars, B. Sicardy +256
Binary asteroids provide key access to fundamental parameters of Solar System remnants and planetary formations. However, the current knowledge of binary asteroids remains strongly…
Constraining the size, shape, and albedo of the large Trans-Neptunian Object (28978) Ixion with multi-chord stellar occultations
Y. Kilic, F. Braga-Ribas, C. L. Pereira +81
Trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) are among the most primitive remnants of the early Solar System, and constraining their sizes, shapes, albedos, and surface properties is essential f…
Kilometer-precise (UII) Umbriel physical properties from the multichord stellar occultation on 2020 September 21
M. Assafin, S. Santos-Filho, B. E. Morgado +39
We report the results of the stellar occultation by (UII) Umbriel on September 21st, 2020. The shadow crossed the USA and Canada, and 19 positive chords were obtained. A limb param…
Milliarcsecond astrometry for the Galilean moons using stellar occultations
B. E. Morgado, A. R. Gomes-Júnior, F. Braga-Ribas +40
A stellar occultation occurs when a Solar System object passes in front of a star for an observer. This technique allows the determination of sizes and shapes of the occulting body…
The Sizes and Albedos of Centaurs 2014 YY and 2013 NL from Stellar Occultation Measurements by RECON
Ryder H. Strauss, Rodrigo Leiva, John M. Keller +46
In 2019, the Research and Education Collaborative Occultation Network (RECON) obtained multiple-chord occultation measurements of two centaur objects: 2014 YY on 2019 Januar…
A multi-chord stellar occultation by the large trans-Neptunian object (174567) Varda
D. Souami, F. Braga-Ribas, B. Sicardy +41
We present results from the first recorded stellar occultation by the large trans-Neptunian object (174567) Varda that was observed on September 10, 2018. Varda belongs…
Results from a triple chord stellar occultation and far-infrared photometry of the trans-Neptunian object (229762) 2007 UK126
Karsten Schindler, Jürgen Wolf, Jerry Bardecker +8
A stellar occultation by a trans-Neptunian object (TNO) provides an opportunity to probe its size and shape. Very few occultations by TNOs have been sampled simultaneously from mul…
Results from the 2014 November 15th multi-chord stellar occultation by the TNO (229762) 2007 UK
Gustavo Benedetti-Rossi, Bruno Sicardy, Marc W. Buie +26
We present results derived from the first multi-chord stellar occultation by the trans-Neptunian object (229762) 2007 UK, observed on 2014 November 15. The event was observ…
