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…

Asteroid sizes determined with thermophysical model and stellar occultations

A. Choukroun, A. Marciniak, J. Ďurech +165

Context. The sizes of many asteroids, especially slowly rotating, low-amplitude targets, remain poorly constrained due to selection effects. These biases limit the availability of…

Physical properties of trans-Neptunian object (143707) 2003 UY117 derived from stellar occultation and photometric observations

M. Kretlow, J. L. Ortiz, J. Desmars +49

Trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) are considered to be among the most primitive objects in our Solar System. Knowledge of their primary physical properties is essential for understand…

A study of centaur (54598) Bienor from multiple stellar occultations and rotational light curves

J. L. Rizos, E. Fernández-Valenzuela, J. L. Ortiz +40

Centaurs, distinguished by their volatile-rich compositions, play a pivotal role in understanding the formation and evolution of the early solar system, as they represent remnants…

Scaling slowly rotating asteroids by stellar occultations

A. Marciniak, J. Ďurech, A. Choukroun +176

As evidenced by recent survey results, majority of asteroids are slow rotators (P>12 h), but lack spin and shape models due to selection bias. This bias is skewing our overall unde…

Constraints on (2060) Chiron's size, shape, and surrounding material from the November 2018 and September 2019 stellar occultations

Felipe Braga-Ribas, C. L. Pereira, B. Sicardy +24

After the discovery of rings around the largest known Centaur object, (10199) Chariklo, we carried out observation campaigns of stellar occultations produced by the second-largest…
