First multi-opposition recoveries of large-orbit LSST TNOs
Chantal Hemmann, Brett Gladman, Justine Obidowski +2
We report 2026 CFHT second-opposition recovery observations of three large-orbit Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs) discovered by the Vera C. Rubin Telescope's Legacy Survey of Space a…
Col-OSSOS: Investigating the Origins of Different Surfaces in the Primordial Kuiper Belt
Laura E. Buchanan, Megan E. Schwamb, Wesley C. Fraser +12
The Colours of the Outer Solar System Origins Survey (Col-OSSOS) measured the optical/NIR colours of a brightness-complete sample of Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs). Like previous s…
An Extremely Deep Rubin Survey to Explore the Extended Kuiper Belt and Identify Objects Observable by New Horizons
JJ Kavelaars, Marc W. Buie, Wesley C. Fraser +22
A proposed Vera C. Rubin Observatory Deep Drilling micro-survey of the Kuiper Belt will investigate key properties of the distant solar system. Utilizing 30 hours of Rubin time acr…
Retrograde predominance of small saturnian moons reiterates a recent retrograde collisional disruption
Edward Ashton, Brett Gladman, Mike Alexandersen +1
We report the discovery and careful orbital determination of 64 new irregular moons of Saturn found in images taken using the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope from 2019-2021, bringin…
The New Horizons Extended Mission Target: Arrokoth Search and Discovery
Marc W. Buie, John R. Spencer, Simon B. Porter +37
Following the Pluto fly-by of the New Horizons spacecraft, the mission provided a unique opportunity to explore the Kuiper Belt in-situ. The possibility existed to fly-by a Kuiper…
OSSOS. VIII. The Transition Between Two Size Distribution Slopes in the Scattering Disk
S. M. Lawler, C. Shankman, JJ. Kavelaars +9
The scattering trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs) can be measured to smaller sizes than any other distant small-body population. We use the largest sample yet obtained, 68 discoveries,…
