Asteroid Thermal Inertia Estimates from Remote Infrared Observations: The Effects of Surface Roughness and Rotation Rate
Alan W. Harris, Line Drube
The thermal inertia of an asteroid's surface can provide insight into regolith properties, such as the presence of a layer of fine dust, the density and thermal conductivity of a r…
Spitzer Albedos of Near-Earth Objects
Annika Gustafsson, David E. Trilling, Michael Mommert +6
Thermal infrared observations are the most effective way to measure asteroid diameter and albedo for a large number of near-Earth objects. Major surveys like NEOWISE, NEOSurvey, Ex…
Infrared Lightcurves of Near Earth Objects
Joseph L. Hora, Amir Siraj, Michael Mommert +9
We present lightcurves and derive periods and amplitudes for a subset of 38 near earth objects (NEOs) observed at 4.5 microns with the IRAC camera on the the Spitzer Space Telescop…
Solar system science with the Wide-Field InfraRed Survey Telescope (WFIRST)
B. J. Holler, S. N. Milam, J. M. Bauer +30
We present a community-led assessment of the solar system investigations achievable with NASA's next-generation space telescope, the Wide Field InfraRed Survey Telescope (WFIRST).…
NEOSurvey 1: Initial results from the Warm Spitzer Exploration Science Survey of Near Earth Object Properties
David E. Trilling, Michael Mommert, Joseph Hora +6
Near Earth Objects (NEOs) are small Solar System bodies whose orbits bring them close to the Earth's orbit. We are carrying out a Warm Spitzer Cycle 11 Exploration Science program…
Dealing with Uncertainties in Asteroid Deflection Demonstration Missions: NEOTwIST
Siegfried Eggl, Daniel Hestroffer, Juan L. Cano +8
Deflection missions to near-Earth asteroids will encounter non-negligible uncertainties in the physical and orbital parameters of the target object. In order to reliably assess fut…
