Radar observations of Europa in 2011-2024: New insights into radar scattering properties
Tunhui Xie, Jean-Luc Margot, Sebastiano Padovan +5
Three of Jupiter's Galilean satellites - Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto - are of particular scientific interest due to their icy shells and suspected subsurface oceans. However, th…
A dynamical dichotomy in large binary asteroids
K. Minker, B. Carry, F. Vachier +20
No less than 15% of large (diameter greater than 140 km) asteroids have satellites. The commonly accepted mechanism for their formation is post-impact reaccumulation. However, the…
A Search for Technosignatures Around 11,680 Stars with the Green Bank Telescope at 1.15-1.73 GHz
Jean-Luc Margot, Megan G. Li, Pavlo Pinchuk +78
We conducted a search for narrowband radio signals over four observing sessions in 2020-2023 with the L-band receiver (1.15-1.73 GHz) of the 100 m diameter Green Bank Telescope. We…
Thermal Models of Asteroids with Two-band Combinations of Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer Cryogenic Data
Emily A. Whittaker, Jean-Luc Margot, Adrian L. H. Lam +1
We used the reparameterized Near-Earth Asteroid Thermal Model to model observations of a curated set of over 4000 asteroids from the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer in two wave…
Determination of 1929 Asteroid Rotation Periods from WISE Data
Adrian L. H. Lam, Jean-Luc Margot, Emily Whittaker +1
We used 22 m (W4) Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) observations of 4420 asteroids to analyze lightcurves and determined spin period estimates for 1929 asteroids. We fi…
Analysis of four-band WISE observations of asteroids
Nathan Myhrvold, Pavlo Pinchuk, Jean-Luc Margot
We analyzed 82,548 carefully curated observations of 4420 asteroids with Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) four-band data to produce estimates of diameters and infrared em…
