The DECam Ecliptic Exploration Project (DEEP) IV: Constraints on the shape distribution of bright TNOs
R. Strauss, D. E. Trilling, P. H. Bernardinelli +20
We present the methods and results from the discovery and photometric measurement of 26 bright (VR 24 trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) during the first year (2019-20) of the DECa…
The DECam Ecliptic Exploration Project (DEEP): I. Survey description, science questions, and technical demonstration
David E. Trilling, David W. Gerdes, Mario Juric +19
We present here the DECam Ecliptic Exploration Project (DEEP), a three year NOAO/NOIRLab Survey that was allocated 46.5 nights to discover and measure the properties of thousands o…
(523599) 2003 RM: The asteroid that wanted to be a comet
Davide Farnocchia, Darryl Z. Seligman, Mikael Granvik +11
We report a statistically significant detection of nongravitational acceleration on the sub-kilometer near-Earth asteroid (523599) 2003 RM. Due to its orbit, 2003 RM experiences fa…
Sublimation Origin of Active Asteroid P/2018 P3
Yoonyoung Kim, Jessica Agarwal, David Jewitt +4
Active asteroids show (typically transient) cometary activity, driven by a range of processes. A sub-set, sometimes called main-belt comets, may be driven by sublimation and so cou…
TNOs are Cool! A Survey of the transneptunian Region XV. Physical characteristics of 23 resonant transneptunian and scattered disk objects
A. Farkas-Takács, Cs. Kiss, E. Vilenius +7
The goal of this work is to determine the physical characteristics of resonant, detached and scattered disk objects in the transneptunian region, observed mainly in the framework o…
Distinguishing multicellular life on exoplanets by testing Earth as an exoplanet
Christopher E. Doughty, Andrew Abraham, James Windsor +4
Can multicellular life be distinguished from single cellular life on an exoplanet? We hypothesize that abundant upright photosynthetic multicellular life (trees) will cast shadows…
