Constraining the Limitations of NEATM-like Models: A Case Study with Near-Earth Asteroid (285263) 1998 QE2
Samuel A. Myers, Ellen S. Howell, Christopher Magri +4
Near-Earth Asteroids (NEAs) are a key testbed for investigations into planet formation, asteroid dynamics, and planetary defense initiatives. These studies rely on understanding NE…
A Survey of CO, CO2, and H2O in Comets and Centaurs
Olga Harrington Pinto, Maria Womack, Yanga R. Fernandez +1
CO and CO are the two dominant carbon-bearing molecules in comae and have major roles in driving activity. Their relative abundances also provide strong observational constrain…
Characterization of Thermal Infrared Dust Emission and Refinements to the Nucleus Properties of Centaur 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1
Charles A. Schambeau, Yanga R. Fernandez, Nalin H. Samarasinha +4
We present analyses of Spitzer observations of 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 using 16 m IRS "blue" peak-up (PU) and 24 m and 70 m MIPS images obtained on UT 2003 November 23…
Time-series and Phasecurve Photometry of Episodically-Active Asteroid (6478) Gault in a Quiescent State Using APO, GROWTH, P200 and ZTF
Josiah N. Purdum, Zhong-Yi Lin, Bryce T. Bolin +49
We observed Episodically Active Asteroid (6478) Gault in 2020 with multiple telescopes in Asia and North America and have found that it is no longer active after its recent outburs…
Compositional study of trans-Neptunian objects at λ > 2.2 μm
E. Fernández-Valenzuela, N. Pinilla-Alonso, J. Stansberry +12
Using data from the Infrared Array Camera on the Spitzer Space Telescope, we present photometric observations of a sample of 100 trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) beyond 2.2 μm. These…
Contemporaneous Multi-Wavelength and Precovery Observations of Active Centaur P/2019 LD2 (ATLAS
Theodore Kareta, Laura M. Woodney, Charles Schambeau +10
Gateway Centaur and Jupiter co-orbital P/2019 LD2 (ATLAS) (Sarid et al. 2019) provides the first opportunity to observe the migration of a Solar System small body from a Centaur or…
