Precise astrometry and diameters of asteroids from occultations -- a data-set of observations and their interpretation
David Herald, David Gault, Robert Anderson +10
Occultations of stars by asteroids have been observed since 1961, increasing from a very small number to now over 500 annually. We have created and regularly maintain a growing dat…
A multi-chord stellar occultation by the large trans-Neptunian object (174567) Varda
D. Souami, F. Braga-Ribas, B. Sicardy +41
We present results from the first recorded stellar occultation by the large trans-Neptunian object (174567) Varda that was observed on September 10, 2018. Varda belongs…
Pluto's lower atmosphere and pressure evolution from ground-based stellar occultations, 1988-2016
E. Meza, B. Sicardy, M. Assafin +167
Context. Pluto's tenuous nitrogen (N2) atmosphere undergoes strong seasonal effects due to high obliquity and orbital eccentricity, and has been recently (July 2015) observed by th…
The structure of Chariklo's rings from stellar occultations
D. Bérard, B. Sicardy, J. I. B. Camargo +79
Two narrow and dense rings (called C1R and C2R) were discovered around the Centaur object (10199) Chariklo during a stellar occultation observed on 2013 June 3. Following this disc…
The Geometric Magnitude and Albedo for the Globe of Saturn
Anthony Mallama, Hristo Pavlov
Saturn's geometric magnitude and albedo were determined by Mallama et al. (2017, Icarus 282, 19-33). That analysis depended largely on photometric data obtained when the ring syste…
Comprehensive Wide-Band Magnitudes and Albedos for the Planets, With Applications to Exo-Planets and Planet Nine
Anthony Mallama, Bruce Krobusek, Hristo Pavlov
Complete sets of reference magnitudes in all 7 Johnson-Cousins bands (U, B, V, R, I, Rc and Ic) and the 5 principal Sloan bands (u', g', r', i', and z') are presented for the 8 pla…
