Main Belt Asteroid Shape Distribution from Gaia DR2

Michael Mommert, Andrew McNeill, David E. Trilling +2

Gaia Data Release 2 includes observational data for 14,099 pre-selected asteroids. From the sparsely sampled G band photometry, we derive lower-limit lightcurve amplitudes for 11,6…

Infrared Lightcurves of Near Earth Objects

Joseph L. Hora, Amir Siraj, Michael Mommert +9

We present lightcurves and derive periods and amplitudes for a subset of 38 near earth objects (NEOs) observed at 4.5 microns with the IRAC camera on the the Spitzer Space Telescop…
