Kuiper Belt Object Occultations: Expected Rates, False Positives, and Survey Design
Steven Bickerton, Doug Welch, JJ Kavelaars
A novel method of generating artificial scintillation noise is developed and used to evaluate occultation rates and false positive rates for surveys probing the Kuiper Belt with th…
The Size Distribution of Kuiper belt objects for D> 10 km
W. C. Fraser, J. J. Kavelaars
We have performed a survey of the Kuiper belt covering ~ 1/3 a square degree of the sky using Suprime-cam on the Subaru telescope, to a limiting magnitude of m(R)~ 26.8 (50% thresh…
A Derivation of the Luminosity Function of the Kuiper Belt from a Broken Power-Law Size Distribution
W. C. Fraser, JJ. Kavelaars
We have derived a model of the Kuiper belt luminosity function exhibited by a broken power-law size distribution. This model allows direct comparison of the observed luminosity fun…
The Kuiper Belt Luminosity Function from m(R)=21 to 26
W. C. Fraser, JJ Kavelaars, M. J. Holman +6
We have performed an ecliptic imaging survey of the Kuiper belt with our deepest and widest field achieving a limiting flux of m(g') = 26.4, with a sky coverage of 3.0 square-degre…
The Short Rotation Period of Nereid
T. Grav, M. J. Holman, JJ. Kavelaars
We determine the period, p = 11.52 \pm 0.14 h, and a light curve peak-to-peak amplitude, a = 0.029 \pm 0.003 magnitudes, of the Neptunian irregular satellite Nereid. If the light c…
