C/2014 UN271 (Bernardinelli-Bernstein): the nearly spherical cow of comets
Pedro H. Bernardinelli, Gary M. Bernstein, Benjamin T. Montet +64
C/2014 UN271 (Bernardinelli-Bernstein) is a comet incoming from the Oort cloud which is remarkable in having the brightest (and presumably largest) nucleus of any well-measured com…
A search of the full six years of the Dark Energy Survey for outer Solar System objects
Pedro H. Bernardinelli, Gary M. Bernstein, Masao Sako +64
We present the results of a search for outer Solar System objects in the full six years of data (Y6) from the Dark Energy Survey (DES). The DES covered a contiguous deg…
No Evidence for Orbital Clustering in the Extreme Trans-Neptunian Objects
K. J. Napier, D. W. Gerdes, Hsing Wen Lin +50
The apparent clustering in longitude of perihelion and ascending node of extreme trans-Neptunian objects (ETNOs) has been attributed to the gravitational effects of an…
Machine Learning for Searching the Dark Energy Survey for Trans-Neptunian Objects
B. Henghes, O. Lahav, D. W. Gerdes +56
In this paper we investigate how implementing machine learning could improve the efficiency of the search for Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs) within Dark Energy Survey (DES) data wh…
Dynamical Classification of Trans-Neptunian Objects Detected by the Dark Energy Survey
T. Khain, J. C. Becker, Hsing Wen Lin +52
The outer Solar System contains a large number of small bodies (known as trans-Neptunian objects or TNOs) that exhibit diverse types of dynamical behavior. The classification of bo…
Trans-Neptunian objects found in the first four years of the Dark Energy Survey
Pedro H. Bernardinelli, Gary M. Bernstein, Masao Sako +61
We present a catalog of 316 trans-Neptunian bodies detected by the Dark Energy Survey (DES). These objects include 245 discoveries by DES (139 not previously published) detected in…
Astrometry and Occultation predictions to Trans-Neptunian and Centaur Objects observed within the Dark Energy Survey
Martin Banda-Huarca, Julio Camargo, Josselin Desmars +59
Transneptunian objects (TNOs) are a source of invaluable information to access the history and evolution of the outer solar system. However, observing these faint objects is a diff…
Dynamical Analysis of Three Distant Trans-Neptunian Objects with Similar Orbits
T. Khain, J. C. Becker, F. C. Adams +62
This paper reports the discovery and orbital characterization of two extreme trans-Neptunian objects (ETNOs), 2016 QV and 2016 QU, which have orbits that appear simil…
Discovery and Dynamical Analysis of an Extreme Trans-Neptunian Object with a High Orbital Inclination
J. C. Becker, T. Khain, S. J. Hamilton +62
We report the discovery and dynamical analysis of 2015 BP, an extreme Trans-Neptunian Object detected detected by the Dark Energy Survey at a heliocentric distance of 55 AU…
Observation of Two New L4 Neptune Trojans in the Dark Energy Survey Supernova Fields
D. W. Gerdes, R. J. Jennings, G. M. Bernstein +62
We report the discovery of the eighth and ninth known Trojans in stable orbits around Neptune's leading Lagrange point, L4. The objects 2014 QO and 2014 QP were det…
