Close-to-fission dumbbell Jupiter-Trojan (17365) Thymbraeus
B. Carry, P. Descamps, M. Ferrais +11
Every population of small bodies in the Solar system contains a sizable fraction of multiple systems. Among these, the Jupiter Trojans have the lowest number of known binary system…
Physical, spectral, and dynamical properties of asteroid (107) Camilla and its satellites
M. Pajuelo, B. Carry, F. Vachier +24
The population of large asteroids is thought to be primordial and they are the most direct witnesses of the early history of our Solar System. Those satellites allow study of the m…
Dumb-bell-shaped equilibrium figures for fiducial contact-binary asteroids and EKBOs
Pascal Descamps
In this work, we investigate the equilibrium figures of a dumb-bell-shaped sequence with which we are still not well acquainted. Studies have shown that these elongated and nonconv…
The Origin of (90) Antiope From Component-Resolved Near-Infrared Spectroscopy
Franck Marchis, J. Emilio Enriquez, Joshua P. Emery +3
The origin of the similary-sized binary asteroid (90) Antiope remains an unsolved puzzle. To constrain the origin of this unique double system, we recorded individual spectra of th…
A spectral comparison of (379) Huenna and its satellite
Francesca DeMeo, Benoit Carry, Franck Marchis +7
We present near-infrared spectral measurements of Themis family asteroid (379) Huenna (D~98 km) and its 6 km satellite using SpeX on the NASA IRTF. The companion was farther than 1…
Triplicity and Physical Characteristics of Asteroid (216) Kleopatra
Pascal Descamps, F. Marchis, J. Berthier +16
To take full advantage of the September 2008 opposition passage of the M-type asteroid (216) Kleopatra, we have used near-infrared adaptive optics (AO) imaging with the W.M. Keck I…
