Discovery of two distinct polarimetric behaviours of trans-Neptunian objects
S. Bagnulo, I. Belskaya, K. Muinonen +4
Trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) contain the most primitive and thermally least-processed materials from the early accretional phase of the solar system. They allow us to study inter…
Polarimetry of the dwarf planet (136199) Eris
I. Belskaya, S. Bagnulo, K. Muinonen +4
We investigate the surface characteristics of the large dwarf planet (136199) Eris. With the FORS1 instrument of the ESO VLT, we have obtained Bessell broadband R linear polarimetr…
Determination of the light curve of the Rosetta target Asteroid (2867) Steins by the OSIRIS cameras onboard Rosetta
M. Kueppers, S. Mottola, S. C. Lowry +9
Context: In 2004 asteroid (2867) Steins has been selected as a flyby target for the Rosetta mission. Determination of its spin period and the orientation of its rotation axis are e…
Reopening the TNOs Color Controversy: Centaurs Bimodality and TNOs Unimodality
N. Peixinho, A. Doressoundiram, A. Delsanti +3
We revisit the Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs) color controversy allegedly solved by Tegler and Romanishin 2003. We debate the statistical approach of the quoted work and discuss wh…
