Physical modelling of near-Earth asteroid (23187) 2000 PN9 with ground-based optical and radar observations

L. Dover, S. C. Lowry, A. Rożek +19

We present a physical model and spin-state analysis of the potentially hazardous asteroid (23187) 2000 PN9. As part of a long-term campaign to make direct detections of the YORP ef…

Physical properties of near-Earth asteroid (2102) Tantalus from multi-wavelength observations

Agata Rożek, Stephen C. Lowry, Benjamin Rozitis +20

Between 2010 and 2017 we have collected new optical and radar observations of the potentially hazardous asteroid (2102)~Tantalus from the ESO NTT and Danish telescopes at the La Si…

The Effect of Aspect Changes on Near-Earth Asteroid Phase Curves

Samuel L. Jackson, Benjamin Rozitis, Lord R. Dover +4

Phase curves of asteroids are typically considered to depend solely on the scattering properties of airless particulate surfaces and the size of the object being studied. In this s…

Detection of the YORP Effect on the contact-binary (68346) 2001 KZ66 from combined radar and optical observations

Tarik J. Zegmott, S. C. Lowry, A. Rożek +7

The YORP effect is a small thermal-radiation torque experienced by small asteroids, and is considered to be crucial in their physical and dynamical evolution. It is important to un…

Spectroscopy and thermal modelling of the first interstellar object 1I/2017 U1 'Oumuamua

Alan Fitzsimmons, Colin Snodgrass, Ben Rozitis +7

During the formation and evolution of the Solar System, significant numbers of cometary and asteroidal bodies were ejected into interstellar space. It can be reasonably exp…

The Surface Roughness of (433) Eros as Measured by Thermal-Infrared Beaming

Ben Rozitis

In planetary science, surface roughness is regarded to be a measure of surface irregularity at small spatial scales, and causes the thermal-infrared beaming effect (i.e. re-radiati…
