Asteroid pairs: method validation and new candidates

Ihor Kyrylenko, Yurij N. Krugly, Oleksiy Golubov

An asteroid pair can be described as two asteroids with highly similar heliocentric orbits that are genetically related but not gravitationally bound. They can be produced by aster…

Asteroid pairs: a complex picture

P. Pravec, P. Fatka, D. Vokrouhlický +45

We studied 93 asteroid pairs. We estimated times elapsed since separation of pair members that are between 7*10^3 and a few 10^6 yr. We derived the rotation periods for all the pri…

YORP and Yarkovsky effects in asteroids (1685) Toro, (2100) Ra-Shalom, (3103) Eger, and (161989) Cacus

J. Durech, D. Vokrouhlicky, P. Pravec +22

The rotation states of small asteroids are affected by a net torque arising from an anisotropic sunlight reflection and thermal radiation from the asteroids' surfaces. On long time…

Multicolour modelling of SN 2013dx associated with GRB 130702A

A. A. Volnova, M. V. Pruzhinskaya, A. S. Pozanenko +13

We present optical observations of SN 2013dx, related to the Fermi burst GRB 130702A occurred at a redshift z = 0.145. It is the second-best sampled GRB-SN after SN~1998bw: the obs…

Obliquity dependence of the tangential YORP

P. Ševeček, O. Golubov, D. J. Scheeres +1

Context. Tangential YORP is a thermophysical effect that can alter the rotation rate of asteroids and is distinct from the "normal" YORP effect, but to date has only been studied f…

Physical models for the normal YORP and diurnal Yarkovsky effects

O. Golubov, Y. Kravets, Yu. N. Krugly +1

We propose an analytic model for the normal YORP and diurnal Yarkovsky effects experienced by a convex asteroid. Both the YORP torque and the Yarkovsky force are expressed as integ…

New and updated convex shape models of asteroids based on optical data from a large collaboration network

J. Hanuš, J. Ďurech, D. A. Oszkiewicz +165

Asteroid modeling efforts in the last decade resulted in a comprehensive dataset of almost 400 convex shape models and their rotation states. This amount already provided a deep in…

Tangential component of the YORP effect

Oleksiy Golubov, Yurij N. Krugly

This article discusses how re-emission of absorbed solar light by centimeter- to decimeter-sized structures on the surface of an asteroid can create a component of the recoil force…

A 3-dimensional model of tangential YORP

O. Golubov, D. J. Scheeres, Yu. N. Krugly

Tangential YORP, or TYORP, has recently been demonstrated to be an important factor in the evolution of an asteroid's rotation state. It is complementary to normal YORP, or NYORP,…
