Near-Infrared Mapping and Physical Properties of the Dwarf-Planet Ceres
Benoit Carry, Christophe Dumas, Marcello Fulchignoni +5
We study the physical characteristics (shape, dimensions, spin axis direction, albedo maps, mineralogy) of the dwarf-planet Ceres based on high-angular resolution near-infrared obs…
The Discovery of Two New Satellites of Pluto
H. A. Weaver, S. A. Stern, M. J. Mutchler +6
Pluto's first known moon, Charon, was discovered in 1978 (Christy 1978) and has a diameter about half that of Pluto (Buie 1992,Young 1994, Sicardy 2005), which makes it larger rela…
Characteristics and Origin of the Quadruple System at Pluto
S. A. Stern, H. A. Weaver, A. J. Steffl +6
Our discovery of two new satellites of Pluto, designated S/2005 P 1 and S/2005 P 2 (henceforth, P1 and P2), combined with the constraints on the absence of more distant satellites…
New Constraints on Additional Satellites of the Pluto System
A. J. Steffl, M. J. Mutchler, H. A. Weaver +8
Observations of Pluto and its solar-tidal stability zone were made using the Advanced Camera for Surveys' (ACS) Wide Field Channel (WFC) on the Hubble Space Telescope on UT 2005 Ma…
Analysis of the First Disk-Resolved Images of Ceres from Ultraviolet Observations with the Hubble Space Telescope
Joel Wm. Parker, S. Alan Stern, Peter C. Thomas +5
We present HST Faint Object Camera observations of the asteroid 1 Ceres at near-, mid-, and far-UV wavelengths (lambda = 3636, 2795, and 1621 A, respectively) obtained on 1995 June…
