Nordic-based observations of binary asteroid (163693) Atira reveal a hydrated CM chondrite composition
Eric M. MacLennan, Grigori Fedorets, Zuri Gray +5
We present photometric, spectroscopic, and polarimetric observations of (163693) Atira collected on the night of 05 March 2024. A dual-band lightcurve acquired in the V and R_C fil…
Reliability of Zodiacal Background Models at Small Solar Elongations
Csaba Kiss, Thomas G. Müller, Javier Licandro +6
Present models of the zodiacal light (scattered sunlight from interplanetary dust in the visible) and zodiacal emission (thermal emission in the mid-infrared) are primarily constra…
Thermophysical characterization of the potentially hazardous near-Earth object 2024 YR4
T. G. Müller, E. M. MacLennan, A. Y. Burdanov +7
The asteroid 2024 YR4 is a potentially hazardous Apollo-type near-Earth object. Its highly eccentric orbit produces close Earth-Moon encounters roughly every 4 years. A collection…
Multi-Wavelength Post-Perihelion Polarimetry of Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS
Zuri Gray, Galin Borisov, Ludmilla Kolokolova +15
We present new post-perihelion polarimetric observations of the third discovered interstellar object, 3I/ATLAS (C/2025 N1; hereafter 3I), obtained using FORS2 at the Very Large Tel…
Asteroid spin-axis longitudes from the Lowell Observatory database
E. Bowell, D. A. Oszkiewicz, L. H. Wasserman +3
By analyzing brightness variation with ecliptic longitude and using the Lowell Observatory photometric database, we estimate spin-axis longitudes for more than 350 000 asteroids. H…
Space-Based Infrared Near-Earth Asteroid Survey Simulation
E. F. Tedesco, K. Muinonen, S. D. Price
We demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of using a satellite-based sensor with visual and infrared focal plane arrays to search for NEAs with orbits largely interior to the…
