Dust Properties of the Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS Revealed by Optical and Near-Infrared Polarimetry
Seungwon Choi, Masateru Ishiguro, Jun Takahashi +17
We present independent polarimetric observations of the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS, including the first near-infrared polarimetric measurements. Using imaging polarimeters, we me…
Optical and Near-Infrared Contemporaneous Polarimetry of C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS)
Bumhoo Lim, Masateru Ishiguro, Jun Takahashi +11
We conducted contemporaneous optical and near-infrared polarimetric and spectroscopic observations of C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS, hereafter T-A) from 2024 October 16 to December…
New evidence supporting past dust ejections from active asteroid (4015) Wilson-Harrington
Sunho Jin, Masateru Ishiguro, Jooyeon Geem +15
Context. (4015) Wilson-Harrington (hereafter, WH) was discovered as a comet in 1949 but has a dynamical property consistent with that of a near-Earth asteroid. Although there is a…
Study of hydrated asteroids via their polarimetric properties at low phase angles
Jooyeon Geem, Masateru Ishiguro, Hiroyuki Naito +11
Context. Ch-type asteroids are distinctive among other dark asteroids in that they exhibit deep negative polarization branches (NPBs). Nevertheless, the physical and compositional…
Quantitative grain size estimation on airless bodies from the negative polarization branch. I. Insights from experiments and lunar observations
Yoonsoo P. Bach, Masateru Ishiguro, Jun Takahashi +4
This work explores characteristics of the negative polarization branch (NPB), which occurs in scattered light from rough surfaces, with particular focus on the effects of fine part…
Quantitative grain size estimation on airless bodies from the negative polarization branch. II. Dawn mission targets (4) Vesta and (1) Ceres
Yoonsoo P. Bach, Masateru Ishiguro, Jun Takahashi +4
Context. Sunlight scattered from the surface of an airless body is generally partially polarized, and the corresponding polarization state includes information about the scattering…
Optical observations of NEA 162173 (1999 JU3) during the 2011-2012 apparition
M. -J. Kim, Y. -J. Choi, H. -K. Moon +7
Near-Earth asteroid 162173 (1999 JU3) is a potential target of two asteroid sample return missions, not only because of its accessibility but also because of the first C-type aster…
