High Albedos of Low Inclination Classical Kuiper Belt Objects
M. J. Brucker, W. M. Grundy, J. A. Stansberry +4
We present observations of thermal emission from fifteen transneptunian objects (TNOs) made using the Spitzer Space Telescope. Thirteen of the targets are members of the Classical…
Is the Missing Ultra-Red Material Colorless Ice?
W. M. Grundy
The extremely red colors of some transneptunian objects and Centaurs are not seen among the Jupiter family comets which supposedly derive from them. Could this mismatch result from…
Optical Spectroscopy of the Large Kuiper Belt Objects 136472 (2005 FY9) and 136108 (2003 EL61)
S. C. Tegler, W. Grundy, W. Romanishin +3
We present high signal precision optical reflectance spectra of the large Kuiper belt objects 2005 FY9 and 2003 EL61. The spectrum of 2005 FY9 exhibits strong CH4-ice bands. A comp…
The Albedo, Size, and Density of Binary Kuiper Belt Object (47171) 1999 TC36
J. A. Stansberry, W. M. Grundy, J. L. Margot +4
We measured the system-integrated thermal emission of the binary Kuiper Belt Object 1999 TC36 at wavelengths near 24 and 70 microns using the Spitzer space telescope. We fit these…
