1I/'Oumuamua-like objects's SFDs with older, current and future surveys
Rodrigo Albornoz-Montenegro, César Fuentes
Interstellar Objects (ISOs) may provide direct evidence of planetesimals ejected from early-stage solar systems. Studying these objects and predicting their detection through vario…
Colors of Irregular Satellites of Saturn with DECam
J. Peña, C. Fuentes
We report g-r and r-i new colors for 21 Saturn Irregular Satellites, among them, 4 previously unreported. This is the highest number of Saturn Irregular satellites reported in a si…
The Geology and Geophysics of Kuiper Belt Object (486958) Arrokoth
J. R. Spencer, S. A. Stern, J. M. Moore +75
The Cold Classical Kuiper Belt, a class of small bodies in undisturbed orbits beyond Neptune, are primitive objects preserving information about Solar System formation. The New Hor…
The size distribution of Near Earth Objects larger than 10 meters
D. E. Trilling, F. Valdes, L. Allen +5
We analyzed data from the first year of a survey for Near Earth Objects (NEOs) that we are carrying out with the Dark Energy Camera (DECam) on the 4-meter Blanco telescope at the C…
The Short Rotation Period of Hi'iaka, Haumea's Largest Satellite
Danielle M. Hastings, Darin Ragozzine, Daniel C. Fabrycky +5
Hi'iaka is the larger outer satellite of the dwarf planet Haumea. Using relative photometry from the Hubble Space Telescope and Magellan and a phase dispersion minimization analysi…
Initial Planetesimal Sizes and the Size Distribution of Small Kuiper Belt Objects
Hilke E. Schlichting, Cesar I. Fuentes, David E. Trilling
We show, by comparing observations with theoretical models, that the observed Kuiper Belt size distribution is well matched by coagulation models, which start from an initial plane…
2011 HM102: Discovery of a High-Inclination L5 Neptune Trojan in the Search for a post-Pluto New Horizons Target
Alex H. Parker, Marc W. Buie, David J. Osip +20
We present the discovery of a long-term stable L5 (trailing) Neptune Trojan in data acquired to search for candidate Trans-Neptunian objects for the New Horizons spacecraft to fly…
Dynamically Excited Outer Solar System Objects in the Hubble Space Telescope Archive
Cesar I. Fuentes, David E. Trilling, Matthew J. Holman
We present the faintest mid ecliptic latitude survey in the second part of HST archival search for outer Solar System bodies. We report the discovery of 28 new trans-Neptunian obje…
Starspots and spin-orbit alignment in the WASP-4 exoplanetary system
Roberto Sanchis-Ojeda, Joshua N. Winn, Matthew J. Holman +3
We present photometry of 4 transits of the exoplanet WASP-4b, each with a precision of approximately 500 ppm and a time sampling of 40-60s. We have used the data to refine the esti…
The inclinations of faint TNOs
David E. Trilling, Cesar I. Fuentes, Matthew J. Holman
Bernstein et al. (2004) found that the population of faint (R>26) trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) known at that time was dominated by "Classical" objects, which have low inclination…
Trans-Neptunian Objects with Hubble Space Telescope ACS/WFC
Cesar I. Fuentes, Matthew J. Holman, David E. Trilling +1
We introduce a novel search technique that can identify trans-neptunian objects in three to five exposures of a pointing within a single Hubble Space Telescope orbit. The process i…
