WISE/NEOWISE Multi-Epoch Imaging of the Potentially Geminid-related Asteroids: (3200) Phaethon, 2005 UD and 1999 YC
Toshihiro Kasuga, Joseph R. Masiero
We present space-based thermal infrared observations of the presumably Geminid-associated asteroids: (3200)Phaethon, 2005 UD and 1999 YC using WISE/NEOWISE. The images were taken a…
Video Observations of Tiny Near-Earth Objects with Tomo-e Gozen
Jin Beniyama, Shigeyuki Sako, Ryou Ohsawa +20
We report the results of video observations of tiny (diameter less than 100 m) near-Earth objects (NEOs) with Tomo-e Gozen on the Kiso 105 cm Schmidt telescope. A rotational period…
Nature of bright C-complex asteroids
Sunao Hasegawa, Toshihiro Kasuga, Fumihiko Usui +1
Most C-complex asteroids have albedo values less than 0.1, but there are some high-albedo (bright) C-complex asteroids with albedo values exceeding 0.1. To reveal the nature and or…
Relationship between Radar Cross Section and Optical Magnitude based on Radar and Optical Simultaneous Observations of Faint Meteors
Ryou Ohsawa, Akira Hirota, Kohei Morita +40
Radar and optical simultaneous observations of meteors are important to understand the size distribution of the interplanetary dust. However, faint meteors detected by high power l…
New constraint on the atmosphere of (50000) Quaoar from a stellar occultation
Ko Arimatsu, Ryou Ohsawa, George L. Hashimoto +35
We report observations of a stellar occultation by the classical Kuiper belt object (50000) Quaoar occurred on 28 June 2019. A single-chord high-cadence (2 Hz) photometry dataset w…
A Fireball and Potentially Hazardous Binary Near-Earth Asteroid (164121) 2003 YT
Toshihiro Kasuga, Mikiya Sato, Masayoshi Ueda +3
We present a fireball detected in the night sky over Kyoto, Japan on UT 2017 April 28 at by the SonotaCo Network. The absolute visual magnitude is $M…
