The visible and thermal light curve of the large Kuiper belt object (50000) Quaoar
C. Kiss, T. G. Müller, G. Marton +7
Recent stellar occultations have allowed accurate instantaneous size and apparent shape determinations of the large Kuiper belt object (50000)~Quaoar and the detection of two rings…
The Moon at thermal infrared wavelengths: A benchmark for asteroid thermal models
T. Müller, M. Burgdorf, V. Ali-Lagoa +2
Thermal-infrared measurements of asteroids are crucial for deriving the objects' sizes, albedos, and also the thermophysical properties of the surface material. Depending on the av…
Light curves of ten Centaurs from K2 measurements
G. Marton, Cs. Kiss, L. Molnár +12
Here we present the results of visible range light curve observations of ten Centaurs using the Kepler Space Telescope in the framework of the K2 mission. Well defined periodic lig…
Small Bodies: Near and Far Database for thermal infrared observations of small bodies in the Solar System
Róbert Szakáts, Thomas Müller, Víctor Alí-Lagoa +4
In this paper we present the "Small Bodies: Near and Far" Infrared Database, an easy-to-use tool intended to facilitate the modeling of thermal emission of small Solar System bodie…
"TNOs are Cool": A survey of the trans-Neptunian region XIV. Size/albedo characterization of the Haumea family observed with Herschel and Spitzer
E. Vilenius, J. Stansberry, T. Müller +14
A group of trans-Neptunian objects (TNO) are dynamically related to the dwarf planet 136108 Haumea. Ten of them show strong indications of water ice on their surfaces, are assumed…
The mass and density of the dwarf planet (225088) 2007 OR10
Csaba Kiss, Gabor Marton, Alex H. Parker +10
The satellite of (225088) 2007 OR10 was discovered on archival Hubble Space Telescope images and along with new observations with the WFC3 camera in late 2017 we have been able to…
Discovery of a satellite of the large trans-Neptunian object (225088) 2007OR10
Csaba Kiss, Gábor Marton, Anikó Farkas-Takács +6
2007OR10 is currently the third largest known dwarf planet in the transneptunian region, with an effective radiometric diameter of ~1535 km. It has a slow rotation period of ~45 h…
The albedo-color diversity of transneptunian objects
Pedro Lacerda, Sonia Fornasier, Emmanuel Lellouch +9
We analyze albedo data obtained using the Herschel Space Observatory that reveal the existence of two distinct types of surface among midsized transneptunian objects. A color-albed…
"TNOs are Cool": A survey of the trans-Neptunian region X. Analysis of classical Kuiper belt objects from Herschel and Spitzer observations
E. Vilenius, C. Kiss, T. Müller +14
The classical Kuiper belt contains objects both from a low-inclination, presumably primordial, distribution and from a high-inclination dynamically excited population. Based on a s…
"TNOs are Cool": A survey of the trans-Neptunian region -- VII. Size and surface characteristics of (90377) Sedna and 2010 EK139
András Pál, Csaba Kiss, Thomas G. Müller +14
We present estimates of the basic physical properties (size and albedo) of (90377) Sedna, a prominent member of the detached trans-Neptunian object population and the recently disc…
