Comparison of the physical properties of the L4 and L5 Trojan asteroids from ATLAS data

A. McNeill, N. Erasmus, D. E. Trilling +7

Jupiter has nearly 8000~known co-orbital asteroids orbiting in the L4 and L5 Lagrange points called Jupiter Trojan asteroids. Aside from the greater number density of the L4 cloud…

NEO Population, Velocity Bias, and Impact Risk from an ATLAS Analysis

A. N. Heinze, Larry Denneau, John L. Tonry +9

We estimate the total population of near-Earth objects (NEOs) in the Solar System, using an extensive, `Solar System to pixels' fake-asteroid simulation to debias detections of rea…

Asteroid models reconstructed from ATLAS photometry

J. Durech, J. Tonry, N. Erasmus +4

The Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) is an all-sky survey primarily aimed at detecting potentially hazardous near-Earth asteroids. Apart from the astrometry of…

ASASSN-14ko is a Periodic Nuclear Transient in ESO 253-G003

Anna V. Payne, Benjamin J. Shappee, Jason T. Hinkle +24

We present the discovery that ASASSN-14ko is a periodically flaring AGN at the center of the galaxy ESO 253-G003. At the time of its discovery by the All-Sky Automated Survey for S…

Limits on the Spin-Orbit Angle and Atmospheric Escape for the 22 Myr-old Planet AU Mic b

Teruyuki Hirano, Vigneshwaran Krishnamurthy, Eric Gaidos +19

We obtained spectra of the pre-main sequence star AU Microscopii during a transit of its Neptune-sized planet to investigate its orbit and atmosphere. We used the high-dispersion n…

Design and operation of the ATLAS Transient Science Server

K. W. Smith, S. J. Smartt, D. R. Young +19

The Asteroid Terrestrial impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) system consists of two 0.5m Schmidt telescopes with cameras covering 29 square degrees at plate scale of 1.86 arcsec per p…
