Prospects for detecting surface color heterogeneity on asteroid surfaces from sparse multiband photometric survey data
Oriel Humes, Jessica Agarwal
Automated sky surveys frequently report sparse-in-time multiband photometric observations of asteroids passing through their fields of view. Photometric data are currently availabl…
The spin state of asteroid Apophis and a prediction of its change during the 2029 close encounter with Earth
J. Durech, D. Vokrouhlicky, P. Pravec +23
On April 13, 2029, the asteroid Apophis will pass near Earth at a geocentric distance of about 38,000 km. Numerical models have suggested that the post-encounter spin state will cr…
Evidence of Possible Spectral Variability in the Patroclus-Menoetius Binary System
Ian Wong, William M. Grundy, Joshua P. Emery +5
We present new visible-wavelength spectroscopic observations of the Patroclus-Menoetius binary system in the Jupiter Trojan population. Motivated by previously published spectra fr…
Insights on the Rotational State and Shape of Asteroid (203) Pompeja from TESS Photometry
Oriel A. Humes, Josef Hanuš
The Main Belt asteroid (203) Pompeja shows evidence of extreme variability in visible and near-infrared spectral slope with time. The observed spectral variability has been hypothe…
Comparative Mid-Infrared Spectroscopy of Dark, Primitive Asteroids: Does Shared Taxonomic Class Indicate Shared Silicate Composition?
Oriel A. Humes, Audrey C. Martin, Cristina A. Thomas +1
Primitive asteroids with low albedos and red slopes in the visible and near infrared (VNIR) are found in both the Main Belt and the Jupiter Trojan clouds. In order to determine whe…
The Distribution of Highly Red-sloped Asteroids in the Middle and Outer Main Belt
Oriel A. Humes, Cristina A. Thomas, Lauren E. McGraw
Red (S > 10%/0.1 micron) spectral slopes are common among Centaurs and trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) in the outer solar system. Interior to and co-orbital with Jupiter, the red (S…
Ultraviolet Spectroscopy of Lucy Mission Targets with the Hubble Space Telescope
Oriel A. Humes, Cristina A. Thomas, Joshua P. Emery +1
The recently launched Lucy mission aims to understand the dynamical history of the Solar System by examining the Jupiter Trojans, a population of primitive asteroids co-orbital wit…
