A near-Sun Solar System Twilight Survey with LSST
Rob Seaman, Paul Abell, Eric Christensen +9
We propose a LSST Solar System near-Sun Survey, to be implemented during twilight hours, that extends the seasonal reach of LSST to its maximum as fresh sky is uncovered at about 5…
The 2016 Reactivations of Main-Belt Comets 238P/Read and 288P/(300163) 2006 VW139
Henry H. Hsieh, Masateru Ishiguro, Yoonyoung Kim +7
We report observations of the reactivations of main-belt comets 238P/Read and 288P/(300163) 2006 VW139, that also track the evolution of each object's activity over several months…
Coma Morphology, Numerical Modeling, and Production Rates for Comet C/Lulin (2007 N3)
Allison N. Bair, David G. Schleicher, Matthew M. Knight
We report on narrowband photometry and extensive imaging observations of comet C/Lulin (2007 N3) obtained at Lowell Observatory during 2008 and 2009. Enhanced CN images revealed a…
The Reactivation and Nucleus Characterization of Main-Belt Comet 358P/PANSTARRS (P/2012 T1)
Henry H. Hsieh, Masateru Ishiguro, Matthew M. Knight +4
We present observations of main-belt comet 358P/PANSTARRS (P/2012 T1) obtained using the Gemini South telescope from 2017 July to 2017 December, as the object approached perihelion…
Large Synoptic Survey Telescope Solar System Science Roadmap
Megan E. Schwamb, R. Lynne Jones, Steven R. Chesley +18
The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) is uniquely equipped to search for Solar System bodies due to its unprecedented combination of depth and wide field coverage. Over a ten-…
A rapid decrease in the rotation rate of comet 41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresák
Dennis Bodewits, Tony L. Farnham, Michael S. P. Kelley +1
Cometary outgassing can produce torques that change the spin state of the nucleus, influencing the evolution and lifetimes of comets (1,2). If these torques spin up the rotation to…
