Col-OSSOS: z Band Photometry Reveals Three Distinct TNO Surface Types
Rosemary E. Pike, Wesley C. Fraser, Megan E. Schwamb +11
Several different classes of trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) have been identified based on their optical and near-infrared colors. As part of the Colours of the Outer Solar System O…
OSSOS VI. Striking Biases in the detection of large semimajor axis Trans-Neptunian Objects
Cory Shankman, JJ Kavelaars, Michele Bannister +9
The accumulating, but small, set of large semi-major axis trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) shows an apparent clustering in the orientations of their orbits. This clustering must eith…
All planetesimals born near the Kuiper Belt formed as binaries
Wesley C. Fraser, Michele t. Bannister, Rosemary E. Pike +19
The cold classical Kuiper belt objects have low inclinations and eccentricities and are the only Kuiper belt population suspected to have formed in situ. Compared with the dynamica…
OSSOS: V. Diffusion in the orbit of a high-perihelion distant Solar System object
Michele T. Bannister, Cory Shankman, Kathryn Volk +12
We report the discovery of the minor planet 2013 SY, on an exceptionally distant, highly eccentric orbit. With a perihelion of 50.0 au, 2013 SY's orbit has a semi-maj…
