Size, atmospheric, and ring constraints on the large Kuiper belt object (55565) Aya from a stellar occultation
Ko Arimatsu, Hidekazu Hanayama, Satoshi Takita +3
We aim to constrain the projected size, geometric albedo, possible atmosphere, and possible ring material of the mid-sized trans-Neptunian object (55565) Aya from the stellar occul…
Opposition effect of comet 28P/Neujmin observed with Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam
Takafumi Ootsubo, Hideyo Kawakita, Tadafumi Takata +8
We present an observational study of the nucleus of comet 28P/Neujmin at a heliocentric distance exceeding 10 au, where coma contamination is effectively minimized. Observations we…
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…
The first detection of an atmosphere on a trans-Neptunian object beyond Pluto
Ko Arimatsu, Fumi Yoshida, Tsutomu Hayamizu +4
Trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) in the outer Solar System are predominantly small, icy worlds long presumed to be atmosphereless except for the largest bodies. Until now, Pluto has…
