Near-Earth asteroids in Main Belt-crossing orbits
P. S. Zain, R. P. Di Sisto, R. Gil-Hutton
We study the dynamical and collisional evolution of Near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) in Main Belt-crossing orbits (NEACs). We select NEACs with H < 18 and integrate their orbits for 1e7…
Polarimetry of M-type asteroids in the context of their surface composition
I. Belskaya, A. Berdyugin, Yu. Krugly +9
Aims. We aim to investigate how polarimetric observations can improve our understanding of the nature and diversity of M/X-type asteroids. Methods. Polarimetric observations of the…
Size and Shape Constraints of (486958) Arrokoth from Stellar Occultations
Marc W. Buie, Simon B. Porter, Peter Tamblyn +130
We present the results from four stellar occultations by (486958) Arrokoth, the flyby target of the New Horizons extended mission. Three of the four efforts led to positive detecti…
The trans-Neptunian object (84922) 2003 VS2 through stellar occultations
Gustavo Benedetti-Rossi, P. Santos-Sanz, J. L. Ortiz +50
We present results from three world-wide campaigns that resulted in the detections of two single-chord and one multi-chord stellar occultations by the Plutino object (84922) 2003~V…
Absolute colours and phase coefficients of trans-Neptunian objects: Correlations and Populations
Alvaro Alvarez-Candal, Carmen Ayala-Loera, Ricardo Gil-Hutton +3
The study of the visible colours of the trans-Neptunian objects opened a discussion almost 20 years ago which, in spite of the increase in the amount of available data, seems far f…
Pluto's lower atmosphere and pressure evolution from ground-based stellar occultations, 1988-2016
E. Meza, B. Sicardy, M. Assafin +167
Context. Pluto's tenuous nitrogen (N2) atmosphere undergoes strong seasonal effects due to high obliquity and orbital eccentricity, and has been recently (July 2015) observed by th…
