Photometry of outer Solar System objects from the Dark Energy Survey II: a joint analysis of trans-Neptunian absolute magnitudes, colors, lightcurves and dynamics

Pedro H. Bernardinelli, Gary M. Bernstein, T. M. C. Abbott +43

For the 696 trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) with absolute magnitudes detected in the Dark Energy Survey (DES), we characterize the relationships between their dyna…

Synchronous rotation in the (136199) Eris-Dysnomia system

G. M. Bernstein, B. J. Holler, R. Navarro-Escamilla +47

We combine photometry of Eris from a 6-month campaign on the Palomar 60-inch telescope in 2015, a 1-month Hubble Space Telescope WFC3 campaign in 2018, and Dark Energy Survey data…

C/2014 UN271 (Bernardinelli-Bernstein): the nearly spherical cow of comets

Pedro H. Bernardinelli, Gary M. Bernstein, Benjamin T. Montet +64

C/2014 UN271 (Bernardinelli-Bernstein) is a comet incoming from the Oort cloud which is remarkable in having the brightest (and presumably largest) nucleus of any well-measured com…

No Evidence for Orbital Clustering in the Extreme Trans-Neptunian Objects

K. J. Napier, D. W. Gerdes, Hsing Wen Lin +50

The apparent clustering in longitude of perihelion and ascending node of extreme trans-Neptunian objects (ETNOs) has been attributed to the gravitational effects of an…

Machine Learning for Searching the Dark Energy Survey for Trans-Neptunian Objects

B. Henghes, O. Lahav, D. W. Gerdes +56

In this paper we investigate how implementing machine learning could improve the efficiency of the search for Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs) within Dark Energy Survey (DES) data wh…

Dynamical Classification of Trans-Neptunian Objects Detected by the Dark Energy Survey

T. Khain, J. C. Becker, Hsing Wen Lin +52

The outer Solar System contains a large number of small bodies (known as trans-Neptunian objects or TNOs) that exhibit diverse types of dynamical behavior. The classification of bo…
