Detection of Contact Binaries Using Sparse High Phase Angle Lightcurves
Pedro Lacerda
We show that candidate contact binary asteroids can be efficiently identified from sparsely sampled photometry taken at phase angles >60deg. At high phase angle, close/contact bina…

Fraction of Contact Binary Trojan Asteroids
Rita K. Mann, David Jewitt, Pedro Lacerda
We present the results of an optical lightcurve survey of 114 Jovian Trojan asteroids conducted to determine the fraction of contact binaries. Sparse-sampling was used to assess th…
