A large topographic feature on the surface of the trans-Neptunian object (307261) 2002 MS measured from stellar occultations
F. L. Rommel, F. Braga-Ribas, J. L. Ortiz +201
This work aims at constraining the size, shape, and geometric albedo of the dwarf planet candidate 2002 MS4 through the analysis of nine stellar occultation events. Using multichor…
Pluto's lower atmosphere and pressure evolution from ground-based stellar occultations, 1988-2016
E. Meza, B. Sicardy, M. Assafin +167
Context. Pluto's tenuous nitrogen (N2) atmosphere undergoes strong seasonal effects due to high obliquity and orbital eccentricity, and has been recently (July 2015) observed by th…
Study of the plutino object (208996) 2003 AZ84 from stellar occultations: size, shape and topographic features
A. Dias-Oliveira, B. Sicardy, J. L. Ortiz +60
We present results derived from four stellar occultations by the plutino object (208996) 2003~AZ, detected at January 8, 2011 (single-chord event), February 3, 2012 (multi-c…
Measuring solar disk shape up to relativistic accuracy: the role of scintillation in ancient naked eye data
Costantino Sigismondi, Richard Nugent, Gerhard Dangl
The orbital displacement of the Moon is known to a precision on the order of centimeters from the lunar laser ranging data, while the lunar profile's confidence level is still only…
