Dimorphos orbit determination from mutual events photometry
Peter Scheirich, Petr Pravec, Alex J. Meyer +6
The NASA Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft successfully impacted the Didymos-Dimorphos binary asteroid system on 2022 September 26 UTC. We provide an update to its…
NEOMOD 2: An Updated Model of Near-Earth Objects from a Decade of Catalina Sky Survey Observations
David Nesvorny, David Vokrouhlicky, Frank Shelly +9
Catalina Sky Survey (CSS) is a major survey of Near-Earth Objects (NEOs). In a recent work, we used CSS observations from 2005-2012 to develop a new population model of NEOs (NEOMO…
Photometry of the Didymos system across the DART impact apparition
Nicholas Moskovitz, Cristina Thomas, Petr Pravec +78
On 26 September 2022, the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft impacted Dimorphos, the satellite of binary near-Earth asteroid (65803) Didymos. This demonstrated the…
The Perturbed Full Two-Body Problem: Application to Post-DART Didymos
Alex J. Meyer, Harrison F. Agrusa, Derek C. Richardson +19
With the successful impact of the NASA DART spacecraft in the Didymos-Dimorphos binary asteroid system, we provide an initial analysis of the post-impact perturbed binary asteroid…
NEOMOD: A New Orbital Distribution Model for Near Earth Objects
David Nesvorny, Rogerio Deienno, William F. Bottke +10
Near Earth Objects (NEOs) are a transient population of small bodies with orbits near or in the terrestrial planet region. They represent a mid-stage in the dynamical cycle of aste…
Tuning the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) Observing Strategy for Solar System Science
Megan E. Schwamb, R. Lynne Jones, Peter Yoachim +27
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory is expected to start the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) in early to mid-2025. This multi-band wide-field synoptic survey will transform our vi…
