Properties of slowly rotating asteroids from the Convex Inversion Thermophysical Model
A. Marciniak, J. Ďurech, V. Alí-Lagoa +73
Results from the TESS mission showed that previous studies strngly underestimated the number of slow rotators, revealing the importance of studying those asteroids. For most slowly…
The 2017 May 20 stellar occultation by the elongated centaur (95626) 2002 GZ
P. Santos-Sanz, J. L. Ortiz, B. Sicardy +56
We predicted a stellar occultation of the bright star Gaia DR1 4332852996360346368 (UCAC4 385-75921) (m= 14.0 mag) by the centaur 2002 GZ for 2017 May 20$^{\rm th}…
Thermal properties of large main-belt asteroids observed by Herschel PACS
V. Alí-Lagoa, T. G. Müller, C. Kiss +11
Non-resolved thermal infrared observations enable studies of thermal and physical properties of asteroid surfaces provided the shape and rotational properties of the target are wel…
Small Bodies: Near and Far Database for thermal infrared observations of small bodies in the Solar System
Róbert Szakáts, Thomas Müller, Víctor Alí-Lagoa +4
In this paper we present the "Small Bodies: Near and Far" Infrared Database, an easy-to-use tool intended to facilitate the modeling of thermal emission of small Solar System bodie…
Physical parameters of selected Gaia mass asteroids
E. Podlewska-Gaca, A. Marciniak, V. Alí-Lagoa +36
Thanks to the Gaia mission, it will be possible to determine the masses of approximately hundreds of large main belt asteroids with very good precision. We currently have diameter…
Thermal properties of slowly rotating asteroids: Results from a targeted survey
A. Marciniak, V. Alí-Lagoa, T. G. Müller +51
Context. Earlier work suggests that slowly rotating asteroids should have higher thermal inertias than faster rotators because the heat wave penetrates deeper into the sub-surface.…
Expected spectral characteristics of (101955) Bennu and (162173) Ryugu, targets of the OSIRIS-REx and Hayabusa2 missions
J. de León, H. Campins, D. Morate +9
NASA's OSIRIS-REx and JAXA's Hayabusa2 sample-return missions are currently on their way to encounter primitive near-Earth asteroids (101955) Bennu and (162173) Ryugu, respectively…
The AKARI IRC asteroid flux catalogue: updated diameters and albedos
V. Alí-Lagoa, T. G. Müller, F. Usui +1
The AKARI IRC All-sky survey provided more than twenty thousand thermal infrared observations of over five thousand asteroids. Diameters and albedos were obtained by fitting an emp…
PRIMASS visits Hilda and Cybele groups
M. N. De Prá, N. Pinilla-Alonso, J. M. Carvano +5
The Cybele and Hilda dynamical groups delimit the outer edge of the asteroid belt. Their compositional distribution is a key element to constrain evolutionary models of the Solar S…
Photometric survey, modelling, and scaling of long-period and low-amplitude asteroids
A. Marciniak, P. Bartczak, T. Müller +40
The available set of spin and shape modelled asteroids is strongly biased against slowly rotating targets and those with low lightcurve amplitudes. As a consequence of these select…
Small Bodies Near and Far (SBNAF): a benchmark study on physical and thermal properties of small bodies in the Solar System
T. G. Müller, A. Marciniak, C. Kiss +15
The combination of visible and thermal data from the ground and astrophysics space missions is key to improving the scientific understanding of near-Earth, main-belt, trojans, cent…
Spin states of asteroids in the Eos collisional family
J. Hanuš, M. Delbo', V. Alí-Lagoa +33
Eos family was created during a catastrophic impact about 1.3 Gyr ago. Rotation states of individual family members contain information about the history of the whole population. W…
Sizes and albedos of Mars-crossing asteroids from WISE/NEOWISE data
Víctor Alí-Lagoa, Marco Delbo'
Context. Mars-crossing asteroids (MCs) are a dynamically unstable group between the main belt and the near-Earth populations. Characterising the physical properties of a large samp…
Compositional study of asteroids in the Erigone collisional family using visible spectroscopy at the 10.4 m GTC
David Morate, Julia de León, Mário De Prá +5
Two primitive near Earth asteroids, (101955) Bennu and (162173) Ryugu, will be visited by a spacecraft with the aim of returning samples back to Earth. Since these objects are beli…
CanariCam/GTC observations of (99942) Apophis
J. Licandro, T. Müller, C. Alvarez +2
The potentially hazardous asteroid (PHA) (99942) Apophis is one of the most remarkable near-Earth asteroids (NEA) in terms of impact hazard. A good determination of its surface the…
Rapid temperature changes and the early activity on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
V. Alí-Lagoa, M. Delbo', G. Libourel
The so-called "early activity" of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko has been observed to originate mostly in parts of the concave region or "neck" between its two lobes. Since activi…
Thermophysical modeling of asteroids from WISE thermal infrared data - Significance of the shape model and the pole orientation uncertainties
Josef Hanuš, Marco Delbo', Josef Ďurech +1
In the analysis of thermal infrared data of asteroids by means of thermophysical models (TPMs) it is a common practice to neglect the uncertainty of the shape model and the rotatio…
