Beyond Point Masses. IV. TNO Altjira is Likely a Hierarchical Triple Discovered Through Non-Keplerian Motion
Maia A Nelsen, Darin Ragozzine, Benjamin C. N. Proudfoot +2
Dynamically studying Trans-Neptunian Object (TNO) binaries allows us to measure masses and orbits. Most of the known objects appear to have only two components, except (47171) Lemp…
Beyond Point Masses. I. New Non-Keplerian Modeling Tools Applied to Trans-Neptunian Triple (47171) Lempo
Darin Ragozzine, Seth Pincock, Benjamin C. N. Proudfoot +3
Many details of the formation and evolution of the solar system are best inferred by understanding the orbital and physical properties of small bodies in the solar system. For exam…
Beyond Point Masses. II. Non-Keplerian Shape Effects are Detectable in Several TNO Binaries
Benjamin C. N. Proudfoot, Darin A. Ragozzine, Meagan L. Thatcher +60
About 40 transneptunian binaries (TNBs) have fully determined orbits with about 10 others being solved except for breaking the mirror ambiguity. Despite decades of study almost all…
Beyond Point Masses. III. Detecting Haumea's Nonspherical Gravitational Field
Benjamin C. N. Proudfoot, Darin A. Ragozzine, William Giforos +3
The dwarf planet Haumea is one of the most compelling transneptunian objects (TNOs) to study, hosting two small, dynamically interacting satellites, a family of nearby spectrally u…
The Equilibrium Vapor Pressures of Ammonia and Oxygen Ices at Outer Solar System Temperatures
B. P. Blakley, Will M. Grundy, Jordan K. Steckloff +8
Few laboratory studies have investigated the vapor pressures of the volatiles that may be present as ices in the outer solar system; even fewer studies have investigated these spec…
