Sub-Seasonal Variation in Neptune's Mid-Infrared Emission
Michael T. Roman, Leigh N. Fletcher, Glenn S. Orton +10
We present an analysis of all currently available ground-based imaging of Neptune in the mid-infrared. Dating between 2003 and 2020, the images reveal changes in Neptune's mid-infr…
Spitzer's Solar System studies of asteroids, planets and the zodiacal cloud
David Trilling, Carey Lisse, Dale P. Cruikshank +13
In its 16 years of scientific measurements, the Spitzer Space Telescope performed a number of ground-breaking infrared measurements of Solar System objects. In this second of two p…
Imaging Cool Giant Planets in Reflected Light: Science Investigations and Synergy with Habitable Planets
Mark Marley, Nikole Lewis, Giada Arney +38
Planned astronomical observatories of the 2020s will be capable of obtaining reflected light photometry and spectroscopy of cool extrasolar giant planets. Here we explain that such…
Astro2020 Science White Paper: Triggered High-Priority Observations of Dynamic Solar System Phenomena
Nancy Chanover, Michael H. Wong, Thomas Greathouse +30
Unexpected dynamic phenomena have surprised solar system observers in the past and have led to important discoveries about solar system workings. Observations at the initial stages…
Exploring the composition of icy bodies at the fringes of the Solar System with next generation space telescopes
Richard J. Cartwright, Bryan Holler, Susan Benecchi +4
Determining the distribution and spectral signature of volatile ices and organics exposed on icy body surfaces can provide crucial clues for deciphering how the outer solar system…
The methane distribution and polar brightening on Uranus based on HST/STIS, Keck/NIRC2, and IRTF/SpeX observations through 2015
Lawrence A. Sromovsky, Erich Karkoschka, Patrick M. Fry +2
HST/STIS observations of Uranus in 2015 show that the depletion of upper tropospheric methane has been relatively stable and that the polar region has been brightening over time as…
