Episodically Active Asteroid 6478 Gault
David Jewitt, Yoonyoung Kim, Jane Luu +4
We present imaging and spectroscopic observations of 6478 Gault, a 6 km diameter inner main-belt asteroid currently exhibiting strong, comet-like characteristics. Three distinct ta…
Active Asteroid P/2017 S5 (ATLAS)
David Jewitt, Yoonyoung Kim, Jayadev Rajagopal +7
Observations of active asteroid P/2017 S5 when near perihelion reveal the ejection of large (0.1 to 10 mm) particles at 0.2 to 2 m/s speeds, with estimated mass-loss rates of a few…
The WIYN One Degree Imager in 2018: An Extended 30-Detector Focal Plane
Daniel R. Harbeck, Mike Lesser, Wilson Liu +14
We report on the upgraded One Degree Imager (ODI) at the WIYN 3.5 meter telescope at the Kitt Peak Observatory after the focal plane was expanded by an additional seventeen detecto…
Interstellar Interloper 1I/2017 U1: Observations from the NOT and WIYN Telescopes
David Jewitt, Jane Luu, Jayadev Rajagopal +4
We present observations of the interstellar interloper 1I/2017 U1 ('Oumuamua) taken during its 2017 October flyby of Earth. The optical colors B-V = 0.700.06, V-R = 0.450…
Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer Observations of Young Stellar Objects in the Western Circinus Molecular Cloud
Wilson M. Liu, Deborah L. Padgett, David Leisawitz +2
The Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer has uncovered a population of young stellar objects in the Western Circinus molecular cloud. Images show the YSOs to be clustered into two m…
The Structure of the β Leonis Debris Disk
Nathan D. Stock, Kate Y. L. Su, Wilson Liu +6
We combine nulling interferometry at 10 μm using the MMT and Keck Telescopes with spectroscopy, imaging, and photometry from 3 to 100 μm using Spitzer to study the debris disk arou…
