Significantly high polarization degree of the very low-albedo asteroid (152679) 1998 KU
Daisuke Kuroda, Masateru Ishiguro, Makoto Watanabe +7
We present a unique and significant polarimetric result regarding the near-Earth asteroid (152679) 1998 KU , which has a very low geometric albedo. From our observatio…
Photonuclear Reactions in Lightning Discovered from Detection of Positrons and Neutrons
Teruaki Enoto, Yuuki Wada, Yoshihiro Furuta +9
Lightning and thundercloud are the most dramatic natural particle accelerators on the Earth. Relativistic electrons accelerated by electric fields therein emit bremsstrahlung gamma…
Polarimetric Study of Near-Earth Asteroid (1566) Icarus
Masateru Ishiguro, Daisuke Kuroda, Makoto Watanabe +13
We conducted a polarimetric observation of the fast-rotating near-Earth asteroid (1566) Icarus at large phase (Sun-asteroid-observer's) angles = 57 deg--141deg around the 2015 s…
Broad-Lined Supernova 2016coi with Helium Envelope
Masayuki Yamanaka, Tatsuya Nakaoka, Masaomi Tanaka +38
We present the early-phase spectra and the light curves of the broad-lined supernova (SN) 2016coi from to days after the estimated explosion date. This SN was initially…
