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…
Size and shape of Chariklo from multi-epoch stellar occultations
R Leiva, B Sicardy, J I B Camargo +28
We use data from five stellar occultations observed between 2013 and 2016 to constrain Chariklo's size and shape, and the ring reflectivity. We consider four possible models for Ch…
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…
Pluto's atmosphere from the 29 June 2015 ground-based stellar occultation at the time of the New Horizons flyby
B. Sicardy, J. Talbot, E. Meza +65
We present results from a multi-chord Pluto stellar occultation observed on 29 June 2015 from New Zealand and Australia. This occurred only two weeks before the NASA New Horizons f…
