Dust Properties of the Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS Revealed by Optical and Near-Infrared Polarimetry
Seungwon Choi, Masateru Ishiguro, Jun Takahashi +17
We present independent polarimetric observations of the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS, including the first near-infrared polarimetric measurements. Using imaging polarimeters, we me…
New evidence supporting past dust ejections from active asteroid (4015) Wilson-Harrington
Sunho Jin, Masateru Ishiguro, Jooyeon Geem +15
Context. (4015) Wilson-Harrington (hereafter, WH) was discovered as a comet in 1949 but has a dynamical property consistent with that of a near-Earth asteroid. Although there is a…
Diffraction modelling of a 2023 March 5 stellar occultation by subkilometer-sized asteroid (98943) 2001 CC21
Ko Arimatsu, Fumi Yoshida, Tsutomu Hayamizu +31
We present an analysis of a stellar occultation event caused by a near-Earth asteroid (98943) 2001 CC21, an upcoming flyby target in the Hayabusa2 extended mission, on March 5, 202…
Spectral Type and Geometric Albedo of (98943) 2001 CC21, the Hayabusa2# Mission Target
Jooyeon Geem, Masateru Ishiguro, Mikael Granvik +18
We conducted optical polarimetry and near-infrared spectroscopy of JAXA's Hayabusa2# mission target, (98943) 2001 CC21, in early 2023. Our new observations indicated that this aste…
(3200) Phaethon Polarimetry in the Negative Branch: New Evidence for the Anhydrous Nature of the DESTINY+ Target Asteroid
Jooyeon Geem, Masateru Ishiguro, Jun Takahashi +23
We report on the first polarimetric study of (3200) Phaethon, the target of JAXA's DESTINY mission, in the negative branch to ensure its anhydrous nature and to derive an accur…
Polarimetric Properties of the Near--Sun Asteroid (155140) 2005 UD in Comparison with Other Asteroids and Meteoritic Samples
Masateru Ishiguro, Yoonsoo P. Bach, Jooyeon Geem +26
The investigation of asteroids near the Sun is important for understanding the final evolutionary stage of primitive solar system objects. A near-Sun asteroid, (155140) 2005 UD, ha…
