Physical Parameters of Asteroids Estimated from the WISE 3 Band Data and NEOWISE Post-Cryogenic Survey

A. Mainzer, T. Grav, J. Masiero +7

Enhancements to the science data processing pipeline of NASA's Wide-field Infrared Explorer (WISE) mission, collectively known as NEOWISE, resulted in the detection of 158,000 m…

Preliminary Analysis of WISE/NEOWISE 3-Band Cryogenic and Post-Cryogenic Observations of Main Belt Asteroids

Joseph R. Masiero, A. K. Mainzer, T. Grav +4

We present preliminary diameters and albedos for 13511 MBAs that were observed during the 3-Band Cryo phase of the WISE survey (after the outer cryogen tank was exhausted) and as p…

Spitzer Photometry of WISE-Selected Brown Dwarf and Hyper-Luminous Infrared Galaxy Candidates

Roger L. Griffith, J. Davy Kirkpatrick, Peter R. M. Eisenhardt +23

We present Spitzer 3.6 and 4.5 m photometry and positions for a sample of 1510 brown dwarf candidates identified by the WISE all-sky survey. Of these, 166 have been spectroscopi…

Submillimeter Follow-up of WISE-Selected Hyperluminous Galaxies

Jingwen Wu, Chao-Wei Tsai, Jack Sayers +20

We have used the Caltech Submillimeter Observatory (CSO) to follow-up a sample of WISE-selected, hyperluminous galaxies, so called W1W2-dropout galaxies. This is a rare (~ 1000 all…
