Spectroscopy and thermal modelling of the first interstellar object 1I/2017 U1 'Oumuamua
Alan Fitzsimmons, Colin Snodgrass, Ben Rozitis +7
During the formation and evolution of the Solar System, significant numbers of cometary and asteroidal bodies were ejected into interstellar space. It can be reasonably exp…
OGLE-2016-BLG-1190Lb: First Spitzer Bulge Planet Lies Near the Planet/Brown-Dwarf Boundary
Y. -H. Ryu, J. C. Yee, A. Udalski +106
We report the discovery of OGLE-2016-BLG-1190Lb, which is likely to be the first Spitzer microlensing planet in the Galactic bulge/bar, an assignation that can be confirmed by two…
280 one-opposition near-Earth asteroids recovered by the EURONEAR with the Isaac Newton Telescope
O. Vaduvescu, L. Hudin, T. Mocnik +80
One-opposition near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) are growing in number, and they must be recovered to prevent loss and mismatch risk, and to improve their orbits, as they are likely to b…
The tumbling rotational state of 1I/`Oumuamua
Wesley C. Fraser, Petr Pravec, Alan Fitzsimmons +4
The discovery of 1I/2017 U1 ('Oumuamua) has provided the first glimpse of a planetesimal born in another planetary system. This interloper exhibits a variable colour within a range…
CASTAway: An Asteroid Main Belt Tour and Survey
N. E. Bowles, C. Snodgrass, A Gibbings +42
CASTAway is a mission concept to explore our Solar System's main asteroid belt. Asteroids and comets provide a window into the formation and evolution of our Solar System and the c…
Evidence for the formation of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko through gravitational collapse of a bound clump of pebbles
Jürgen Blum, Bastian Gundlach, Maya Krause +19
The processes that led to the formation of the planetary bodies in the Solar System are still not fully understood. Using the results obtained with the comprehensive suite of instr…
