High-Speed Boulders and the Debris Field in DART Ejecta
Tony L. Farnham, Jessica M. Sunshine, Masatoshi Hirabayashi +44
On 26 September 2022 the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft collided with Dimorphos, the moon of the near-Earth asteroid 65803 Didymos, in a full-scale demonstratio…
Quantifying the Detectability of Milky Way Satellites with Image Simulations: a Case Study with KiDS
Shiyang Zhang, Hendrik Hildebrandt, Ziang Yan +6
Ultra-faint dwarf galaxies, which can be detected as resolved satellite systems of the Milky Way, are critical to understanding galaxy formation, evolution, and the nature of dark…
VST-SMASH: the VST Survey of Mass Assembly and Structural Hierarchy
Crescenzo Tortora, Rossella Ragusa, Massimiliano Gatto +21
The VLT Survey Telescope Survey of Mass Assembly and Structural Hierarchy (VST-SMASH) aims to detect tidal features and remnants around very nearby galaxies, a unique and essential…
New Kids in Town. Sextans~II: a new stellar system in the outskirts of the Milky Way
Massimiliano Gatto, Michele Bellazzini, Crescenzo Tortora +9
We report on the discovery of a significant and compact over-density of old and metal-poor stars in the KiDS survey (data release 4). The discovery is confirmed by deeper HSC-SSC d…
Ejecta Evolution Following a Planned Impact into an Asteroid: The First Five Weeks
Theodore Kareta, Cristina Thomas, Jian-Yang Li +85
The impact of the DART spacecraft into Dimorphos, moon of the asteroid Didymos, changed Dimorphos' orbit substantially, largely from the ejection of material. We present results fr…
Long-period radio pulsars: population study in the neutron star and white dwarf rotating dipole scenarios
Nanda Rea, Natasha Hurley-Walker, Celsa Pardo-Araujo +9
The nature of two recently discovered radio emitters with unusually long periods of 18min (GLEAM-X J1627-52) and 21min (GPM J1839-10) is highly debated. Their bright radio emission…
Momentum Transfer from the DART Mission Kinetic Impact on Asteroid Dimorphos
Andrew F. Cheng, Harrison F. Agrusa, Brent W. Barbee +66
The NASA Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission performed a kinetic impact on asteroid Dimorphos, the satellite of the binary asteroid (65803) Didymos, at 23:14 UTC on Sep…
