Col-OSSOS: Probing Ice Line/Color Transitions within the Kuiper Belt's Progenitor Populations
Laura E. Buchanan, Megan E. Schwamb, Wesley C. Fraser +15
Dynamically excited objects within the Kuiper belt show a bimodal distribution in their surface colors, and these differing surface colors may be a tracer of where these objects fo…
OSSOS. XXIII. 2013 VZ70 and the Temporary Coorbitals of the Giant Planet
Mike Alexandersen, Sarah Greenstreet, Brett J. Gladman +8
We present the discovery of 2013 VZ70, the first known horseshoe coorbital companion of Saturn. Observed by the Outer Solar System Origins Survey (OSSOS) for 4.5 years, the orbit o…
OSSOS finds an Exponential Cutoff in the Size Distribution of the Cold Classical Kuiper belt
JJ Kavelaars, Jean-Marc Petit, Brett Gladman +5
The cold main classical Kuiper Belt consists of those non-resonant small solar system bodies with low orbital inclinations and orbital semi-major axes between 42.4 and 47.7 au. The…
Collision Probabilities in the Edgeworth-Kuiper belt
Abedin Y. Abedin, JJ Kavelaars, Sarah Greenstreet +8
Here, we present results on the intrinsic collision probabilities, , and range of collision speeds, , as a function of the heliocentric distance, , in the trans-Neptu…
Col-OSSOS: The Distinct Colour Distribution of Single and Binary Cold Classical KBOs
Wesley C. Fraser, Susan D. Benecchi, JJ Kavelaars +11
The cold classical Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs) possess a high, binary fraction. Widely separated and dynamically fragile, these binary systems have been useful in trac…
K2-138 g: Spitzer Spots a Sixth Planet for the Citizen Science System
Kevin K. Hardegree-Ullman, Jessie L. Christiansen, David R. Ciardi +10
greatly extended 's ability to find new planets, but it was typically limited to identifying transiting planets with orbital periods below 40 days. While analyzing $K2…
