WISE/NEOWISE observations of Active Bodies in the Main Belt
James M. Bauer, A. K. Mainzer, Tommy Grav +22
We report results based on mid-infrared photometry of 5 active main belt objects (AMBOs) detected by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) spacecraft. Four of these bodies…
NEOWISE Studies of Asteroids with Sloan Photometry: Preliminary Results
A. Mainzer, J. Masiero, T. Grav +11
We have combined the NEOWISE and Sloan Digital Sky Survey data to study the albedos of 24,353 asteroids with candidate taxonomic classifications derived using Sloan photometry. We…
A variable mid-infrared synchrotron break associated with the compact jet in GX 339-4
P. Gandhi, A. W. Blain, D. M. Russell +11
Many X-ray binaries remain undetected in the mid-infrared, a regime where emission from their compact jets is likely to dominate. Here, we report the detection of the black hole bi…
The Discovery of Y Dwarfs Using Data from the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE)
Michael C. Cushing, J. Davy Kirkpatrick, Christopher R. Gelino +13
We present the discovery of seven ultracool brown dwarfs identified with the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE). Near-infrared spectroscopy reveals deep absorption bands of…
WISE/NEOWISE observations of comet 103P/Hartley 2
James M. Bauer, Russell G. Walker, A. K. Mainzer +19
We report results based on mid-infrared photometry of comet 103P/Hartley 2 taken during May 4-13, 2010 (when the comet was at a heliocentric distance of 2.3 AU, and an observer dis…
Thermal Model Calibration for Minor Planets Observed with WISE/NEOWISE: Comparison with IRAS
A. Mainzer, T. Grav, J. Masiero +5
With thermal infrared observations detected by the NEOWISE project, we have measured diameters for 1742 minor planets that were also observed by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite…
