The two rings of (50000) Quaoar
C. L. Pereira, B. Sicardy, B. E. Morgado +66
Quaoar is a classical Trans-Neptunian Object (TNO) with an area equivalent diameter of 1,100 km and an orbital semi-major axis of 43.3 astronomical units. Based on stellar occultat…
Gemini/GMOS Transmission Spectroscopy of the Grazing Planet Candidate WD 1856+534 b
Siyi Xu, Hannah Diamond-Lowe, Ryan J. MacDonald +12
WD 1856+534 b is a Jupiter-sized, cool giant planet candidate transiting the white dwarf WD 1856+534. Here, we report an optical transmission spectrum of WD 1856+534 b obtained fro…
Size and Shape Constraints of (486958) Arrokoth from Stellar Occultations
Marc W. Buie, Simon B. Porter, Peter Tamblyn +130
We present the results from four stellar occultations by (486958) Arrokoth, the flyby target of the New Horizons extended mission. Three of the four efforts led to positive detecti…
Limits on Quaoar's Atmosphere
Wesley C Fraser, Chad Trujillo, Andrew W. Stephens +4
Here we present high cadence photometry taken by the Acquisition Camera on Gemini South, of a close passage by the km radius Kuiper Belt Object, (50000) Quaoar, of a r'=2…
Kuiper Belt Occultation Predictions
Wesley C. Fraser, Stephen Gwyn, Chad Trujillo +13
Here we present observations of 7 large Kuiper Belt Objects. From these observations, we extract a point source catalog with precision, and astrometry of our target Kui…
