Thermal properties of slowly rotating asteroids: Results from a targeted survey
A. Marciniak, V. Alí-Lagoa, T. G. Müller +51
Context. Earlier work suggests that slowly rotating asteroids should have higher thermal inertias than faster rotators because the heat wave penetrates deeper into the sub-surface.…
Herschel-PACS photometry of faint stars
Ulrich Klaas, Zoltan Balog, Markus Nielbock +3
Our aims are to determine flux densities and their photometric accuracy for a set of seventeen stars that range in flux from intermediately bright (<2.5 Jy) to faint (>5 mJy) in th…
3D shape of asteroid (6)~Hebe from VLT/SPHERE imaging: Implications for the origin of ordinary H chondrites
M. Marsset, B. Carry, C. Dumas +15
Context. The high-angular-resolution capability of the new-generation ground-based adaptive-optics camera SPHERE at ESO VLT allows us to assess, for the very first time, the crater…
Hayabusa-2 Mission Target Asteroid 162173 Ryugu (1999 JU3): Searching for the Object's Spin-Axis Orientation
T. G. Müller, J. Ďurech, M. Ishiguro +27
The JAXA Hayabusa-2 mission was approved in 2010 and launched on December 3, 2014. The spacecraft will arrive at the near-Earth asteroid 162173 Ryugu in 2018 where it will perform…
Results from a triple chord stellar occultation and far-infrared photometry of the trans-Neptunian object (229762) 2007 UK126
Karsten Schindler, Jürgen Wolf, Jerry Bardecker +8
A stellar occultation by a trans-Neptunian object (TNO) provides an opportunity to probe its size and shape. Very few occultations by TNOs have been sampled simultaneously from mul…
Large Halloween Asteroid at Lunar Distance
T. G. Müller, A. Marciniak, M. Butkiewicz-Bąk +7
The near-Earth asteroid (NEA) 2015 TB145 had a very close encounter with Earth at 1.3 lunar distances on October 31, 2015. We obtained 3-band mid-infrared observations with the ESO…
