A Large Outburst, Coma Asymmetries, and the Color of Comet 243P/NEAT
Michael S. P. Kelley, Silvia Protopapa, Dennis Bodewits +16
Water ice is a fundamental building material of comets and other bodies in the outer solar system. Yet, the properties of cometary water ice are challenging to study, due to its vo…
Estimates of Rotation Periods for Jupiter Trojans with the Zwicky Transient Facility Photometric Lightcurves
Zhuofu Li, Yasin A. Chowdhury, Željko Ivezić +12
We present new rotational period estimates for 216 Jupiter Trojans using photometric data from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF), including 80 Trojans with previously unknown per…
In Search of the Potentially Hazardous Asteroids in the Taurid Resonant Swarm
Jasmine Li, Quanzhi Ye, Denis Vida +8
The Taurid Complex is a large interplanetary system that contains comet 2P/Encke, several meteoroid streams, and possibly a number of near-Earth asteroids. The size and nature of t…
The Palomar twilight survey of 'Ayló'chaxnim, Atiras, and comets
B. T. Bolin, F. J. Masci, M. W. Coughlin +29
Near-sun sky twilight observations allow for the detection of asteroid interior to the orbit of Venus (Aylos), the Earth (Atiras), and comets. We present the results of observation…
The Sensitivity of NEO Surveyor to Low-Perihelion Asteroids
Joseph R. Masiero, Yuna G. Kwon, Dar W. Dahlen +2
Asteroids with low orbital perihelion distances experience extreme heating from the Sun that can modify their surfaces and trigger non-typical activity mechanisms. These objects ar…
The NEO Surveyor Near Earth Asteroid Known Object Model
Tommy Grav, Amy K. Mainzer, Joseph R. Masiero +4
The known near-Earth object (NEO) population consists of over 32,000 objects, with a yearly discovery rate of over 3000 NEOs per year. An essential component of the next generation…
