Spectral Energy Distribution and Polarimetric Properties of Dust in the Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS

Seungwon Choi, Masateru Ishiguro, Hiroyuki Naito +13

The interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS exhibits unusual polarimetric properties compared with Solar System comets, while constraints on its fundamental physical properties, such as dust a…

Simultaneous Tricolor Video Observations of Three Tiny Near-Earth Asteroids with Sub-Minute Rotation Periods

Jin Beniyama, Ryou Ohsawa, Shigeyuki Sako +4

Studying the physical properties of near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) is crucial for understanding their dynamical histories and origins, and assessing impact hazards to Earth. Tiny NEAs…

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…

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…

Multicolor Photometry of Tiny Near-Earth Asteroid 2015 RN Across a Wide Range of Phase Angles: Possible Mission Accessible A-type Asteroid

Jin Beniyama, Ryou Ohsawa, Chrysa Avdellidou +10

Studying small near-Earth asteroids is important to understand their dynamical histories and origins as well as to mitigate the damage of the asteroid impact to the Earth. We repor…
