Long-lasting activity of asteroid (248370) 2005 QN 173
Oleksandra Ivanova, Javier Licandro, Fernando Moreno +8
We present the results of observations of asteroid (248370) QN obtained during July 2021 - January 2022 with three telescopes. Our analysis revealed the presence of the dus…
A large topographic feature on the surface of the trans-Neptunian object (307261) 2002 MS measured from stellar occultations
F. L. Rommel, F. Braga-Ribas, J. L. Ortiz +201
This work aims at constraining the size, shape, and geometric albedo of the dwarf planet candidate 2002 MS4 through the analysis of nine stellar occultation events. Using multichor…
Discovery and physical characterization as the first response to a potential asteroid collision: The case of 2023 DZ2
Marcel M. Popescu, O. Văduvescu, Julia de León +15
Near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) that may evolve into impactors deserve detailed threat assessment studies. Early physical characterization of a would-be impactor may help in optimizing…
Characterisation of the new target of the NASA Lucy mission: asteroid 152830 Dinkinesh (1999 VD57)
J. de León, J. Licandro, N. Pinilla-Alonso +3
The NASA Lucy mission is aimed at the study of the very interesting population of Jupiter Trojans, considered as time capsules from the origin of our solar system. During its journ…
Near-Ultraviolet Absorption Distribution of Primitive Asteroids from Spectrophotometric Surveys
Eri Tatsumi, Faith Vilas, Julia de León +5
Aims: Our objectives were first to evaluate the possibility for using the NUV absorption as diagnostics of hydrated minerals based on the recent datasets of primitive asteroids and…
Spectral analysis of basaltic asteroids observed by the Gaia space mission
Dagmara Oszkiewicz, Hanna Klimczak, Benoit Carry +4
There is a great deal of scientific interest in characterizing the basaltic asteroids (spectrally classified as V-types), as they are the key to understanding planetesimal formatio…
