YORP and Yarkovsky effects in asteroids (1685) Toro, (2100) Ra-Shalom, (3103) Eger, and (161989) Cacus

J. Durech, D. Vokrouhlicky, P. Pravec +22

The rotation states of small asteroids are affected by a net torque arising from an anisotropic sunlight reflection and thermal radiation from the asteroids' surfaces. On long time…

Adaptive optics and lightcurve data of asteroids: twenty shape models and information content analysis

Matti Viikinkoski, Josef Hanus, Mikko Kaasalainen +2

We present shape models and volume estimates of twenty asteroids based on relative photometry and adaptive optics images. We discuss error estimation and the effects of myopic deco…

Shape and spin determination of Barbarian asteroids

M. Devogèle, P. Tanga, P. Bendjoya +51

Context. The so-called Barbarian asteroids share peculiar, but common polarimetric properties, probably related to both their shape and composition. They are named after (234) Barb…

Shape models of asteroids based on lightcurve observations with BlueEye600 robotic observatory

Josef Durech, Josef Hanus, Miroslav Broz +14

We present physical models, i.e. convex shapes, directions of the rotation axis, and sidereal rotation periods, of 18 asteroids out of which 10 are new models and 8 are refined mod…

Asteroid shapes and thermal properties from combined optical and mid-infrared photometry inversion

Josef Durech, Marco Delbo, Benoit Carry +2

Optical lightcurves can be used for the shape and spin reconstruction of asteroids. Due to unknown albedo, these models are scale-free. When thermal infrared data are available, th…

3D shape of asteroid (6)~Hebe from VLT/SPHERE imaging: Implications for the origin of ordinary H chondrites

M. Marsset, B. Carry, C. Dumas +15

Context. The high-angular-resolution capability of the new-generation ground-based adaptive-optics camera SPHERE at ESO VLT allows us to assess, for the very first time, the crater…
