The Inbound Gas and Dust Evolution of Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS from Optical Spectroscopy and Multi-band Photometry
Toni Santana-Ros, Alexey Sergeyev, Oleksandra Ivanova +9
Interstellar objects (ISOs) provide direct constraints on the composition and evolution of extrasolar planetary systems. As the third confirmed ISO, comet 3I/ATLAS offers a rare op…

Asteroid phase curve modeling with empirical correction for shape and viewing geometry
Dagmara Oszkiewicz. PrzemysÅaw Bartczak, Milagros Colazo, Antti Penttilä
We present a novel empirical method for correcting asteroid phase curves for rotational and geometrical effects using precomputed spin-and-shape models. Our approach normalizes spa…

Photometric analysis of asteroids in the Phocaea region
Xiaoyun Xu, Xiaobing Wang, Karri Muinonen +7
The Phocaea asteroid family, one of the large ancient families located in the inner main belt, may be the sources of near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) due to the nearby 3:1 mean motion r…
