APPROX -- Mutual approximations between the Galilean moons. The 2016-2018 observational campaign
B. Morgado, R. Vieira-Martins, M. Assafin +23
The technique of mutual approximations accurately gives the central instant at the maximum apparent approximation of two moving natural satellites in the sky plane. This can be use…
Rings under close encounters with the giant planets: Chariklo vs Chiron
R. A. N. Araujo, O. C. Winter, R. Sfair
In 2014, the discovery of two well-defined rings around the Centaur (10199) Chariklo were announced. This was the first time that such structures were found around a small body. In…
The journey of Typhon-Echidna as a binary system through the planetary region
R. A. N. Araujo, M. A. Galiazzo, C. Winter +1
Among the current population of the 81 known trans-Neptunian binaries (TNBs), only two are in orbits that cross the orbit of Neptune. These are (42355) Typhon-Echidna and (65489) C…
Particles co-orbital to Janus and Epimetheus: a firefly planetary ring
Othon C. Winter, Alexandre P. S. Souza, Rafael Sfair +3
The Cassini spacecraft found a new and unique ring that shares the trajectory of Janus and Epimetheus, co-orbital satellites of Saturn. Performing image analysis, we found this to…
