A search for photometric variability towards the globular cluster M3 with the TWenty Inch Survey Telescope
Morgan A. Mitchell, Paul Chote, James McCormac +9
We present the commissioning results and first scientific observations from the newly installed TWIST observatory - a 50 cm telescope equipped with an sCMOS camera providing a $36.…
Lord of the (sub-)Rings : Mapping the surface reflectance and spin-axis of Ajisai
Robert J. S Airey, Paul Chote, James A. Blake +4
Active debris removal techniques are posed to become an important tool in maintaining the safety of the near-Earth space environment. These techniques rely on a clear understanding…
High-Precision Photometry with a scientific CMOS Camera: I Lab Testing of the Marana camera
Ioannis Apergis, Daniel Bayliss, Leonidas Asimakoulas +6
Scientific CMOS cameras are becoming increasingly prevalent in modern observational astronomy. We assess the ability of CMOS image sensors technology to perform high-precision phot…
High-precision light curves of geostationary objects: The PHANTOM ECHOES 2 RPO campaign
Paul Chote, Robert Airey, James McCormac +9
We present results from an extensive optical observation campaign that monitored the Geostationary satellites Intelsat 10-02, Mission Extension Vehicle 2, Thor 5, Thor 6, Thor 7, a…
Classification of LEO Satellites Using Occultations of Background Stars
Benjamin F. Cooke, Don Pollacco, James A. Blake +4
We present the result of a proof-of-concept simulation designed to classify LEO satellites based on their occultations of background stars. We generate satellite shapes drawn from…
A comprehensive survey of the GEO-belt using simultaneous four-colour observations with STING
Robert J. S. Airey, Paul Chote, James A. Blake +7
Colour light curves of resident space objects (RSOs) encapsulate distinctive features that can offer insights into an object's structure and design, making them an invaluable tool…
