The appearance of a 'fresh' surface on 596 Scheila as a consequence of the 2010 impact event

Sunao Hasegawa, Michael Marsset, Francesca E. DeMeo +8

Dust emission was detected on main-belt asteroid 596 Scheila in December 2010, and attributed to the collision of a few-tens-of-meters projectile on the surface of the asteroid. In…

Observed tidal evolution of Kleopatra's outer satellite

M. Brož, J. Ďurech, B. Carry +8

The orbit of the outer satellite Alexhelios of (216) Kleopatra is already constrained by adaptive-optics astrometry, obtained with the VLT/SPHERE instrument. However, there is also…

(216) Kleopatra, a low density critically rotating M-type asteroid

F. Marchis, L. Jorda, P. Vernazza +36

Context. The recent estimates of the 3D shape of the M/Xe-type triple asteroid system (216) Kleopatra indicated a density of 5 g.cm. Such a high density implies a high metal…

Discovery of two TNO-like bodies in the asteroid belt

Sunao Hasegawa, Michael Marsset, Francesca E. DeMeo +6

Two extremely red main-belt asteroids: 203 Pompeja and 269 Justitia, were identified from combined visible and near-infrared spectroscopic observations collected at the IRTF and SA…

An advanced multipole model for (216) Kleopatra triple system

M. Brož, F. Marchis, L. Jorda +37

To interpret adaptive-optics observations of (216) Kleopatra, we need to describe an evolution of multiple moons, orbiting an extremely irregular body and including their mutual in…

Evidence for differentiation of the most primitive small bodies

B. Carry, P. Vernazza, F. Vachier +40

Dynamical models of Solar System evolution have suggested that P-/D-type volatile-rich asteroids formed in the outer Solar System and may be genetically related to the Jupiter Troj…
