Significantly high polarization degree of the very low-albedo asteroid (152679) 1998 KU

Daisuke Kuroda, Masateru Ishiguro, Makoto Watanabe +7

We present a unique and significant polarimetric result regarding the near-Earth asteroid (152679) 1998 KU , which has a very low geometric albedo. From our observatio…

Thermal Modeling of Comet-Like Objects from AKARI Observation

Yoonsoo P. Bach, Masateru Ishiguro, Fumihiko Usui

We investigated the physical properties of the comet-like objects 107P/(4015) Wilson--Harrington (4015WH) and P/2006 HR30 (Siding Spring; HR30) by applying a simple thermophysical…
