De-biased Populations of Kuiper Belt Objects from the Deep Ecliptic Survey

E. R. Adams, A. A. S. Gulbis, J. L. Elliot +4

The Deep Ecliptic Survey (DES) discovered hundreds of Kuiper Belt objects from 1998-2005. Follow-up observations yielded 304 objects with good dynamical classifications (Classical,…

Buoyancy waves in Pluto's high atmosphere: Implications for stellar occultations

W. B. Hubbard, D. W. McCarthy, C. A. Kulesa +4

We apply scintillation theory to stellar signal fluctuations in the high-resolution, high signal/noise, dual-wavelength data from the MMT observation of the 2007 March 18 occultati…

Procedures, Resources, and Selected Results of the Deep Ecliptic Survey

M. W. Buie, R. L. Millis, L. H. Wasserman +8

The Deep Ecliptic Survey is a project whose goal is to survey a large area of the near-ecliptic region to a faint limiting magnitude (R ~ 24) in search of objects in the outer sola…

Scintillation Caustics in Planetary Occultation Light Curves

Asantha R. Cooray, J. L. Elliot

We revisit the GSC5249-01240 light curve obtained during its occultation by Saturn's North polar region. In addition to refractive scintillations, the power spectrum of intensity f…

Large Bodies in the Kuiper Belt

Chadwick A. Trujillo, Jane X. Luu, Amanda S. Bosh +1

We present a survey for bright Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs) and Centaurs, conducted at the Kitt Peak National Observatory (KPNO) 0.9 m telescope with the KPNO 8k Mosaic CCD. The surv…

Stellar Occultation Observations of Saturn's North-Polar Temperature Structure

Asantha R. Cooray, James L. Elliot, Amanda S. Bosh +2

We have observed a stellar occultation of GSC5249-01240 by Saturn's north polar region on November 20, 1995 from NASA's Infrared Telescope Facility (IRTF). This is the first record…
