The Highly Unusual Behavior and Chemical Composition of Interstellar Comet 2I/Borisov
Allison N. Bair, David G. Schleicher, Theodore Kareta +2
We report on imaging, spectroscopy, and narrowband photometry of interstellar comet 2I/Borisov obtained at Lowell Observatory from 2019 September 13 to December 16. We measured che…
Multi-year Ground-Based Survey Photometry of Active Comet 103P/Hartley 2 and Centaur (2060) Chiron: A Tale of Two Comets in the Pre-LSST Era
Joseph Murtagh, Megan E. Schwamb, Michael S. P. Kelley +22
Comets and Centaurs trace the evolution of trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) into the inner solar system. Their activity reflects the interplay between volatile sublimation, dust dyna…
Physical and Surface Properties of Comet Nuclei from Remote Observations
Matthew M. Knight, Rosita Kokotanekova, Nalin H. Samarasinha
We summarize the collective knowledge of physical and surface properties of comet nuclei, focusing on those that are obtained from remote observations. We now have measurements or…
Sodium Brightening of (3200) Phaethon Near Perihelion
Qicheng Zhang, Karl Battams, Quanzhi Ye +2
Sunskirting asteroid (3200) Phaethon has been repeatedly observed in STEREO HI1 imagery to anomalously brighten and produce an antisunward tail for a few days near each perihelion…
Tuning the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) Observing Strategy for Solar System Science
Megan E. Schwamb, R. Lynne Jones, Peter Yoachim +27
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory is expected to start the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) in early to mid-2025. This multi-band wide-field synoptic survey will transform our vi…
Ejecta from the DART-produced active asteroid Dimorphos
Jian-Yang Li, Masatoshi Hirabayashi, Tony L. Farnham +61
Some active asteroids have been proposed to be the result of impact events. Because active asteroids are generally discovered serendipitously only after their tail formation, the p…
