Physical properties of Centaur (60558) 174P/Echeclus from stellar occultations
C. L. Pereira, F. Braga-Ribas, B. Sicardy +42
The Centaur (60558) Echeclus was discovered on March 03, 2000, orbiting between the orbits of Jupiter and Uranus. After exhibiting frequent outbursts, it also received a comet desi…
Constraints on the structure and seasonal variations of Triton's atmosphere from the 5 October 2017 stellar occultation and previous observations
J. Marques Oliveira, B. Sicardy, A. R. Gomes-Júnior +234
A stellar occultation by Neptune's main satellite, Triton, was observed on 5 October 2017 from Europe, North Africa, and the USA. We derived 90 light curves from this event, 42 of…
Refined physical parameters for Chariklo's body and rings from stellar occultations observed between 2013 and 2020
B. E. Morgado, B. Sicardy, F. Braga-Ribas +78
The Centaur (10199) Chariklo has the first rings system discovered around a small object. It was first observed using stellar occultation in 2013. Stellar occultations allow the de…
Stellar occultations enable milliarcsecond astrometry for Trans-Neptunian objects and Centaurs
F. L. Rommel, F. Braga-Ribas, J. Desmars +66
Trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) and Centaurs are remnants of our planetary system formation, and their physical properties have invaluable information for evolutionary theories. Ste…
Stellar Occultations by Transneptunian objects: from Predictions to Observations and Prospects for the Future
J. L. Ortiz, B. Sicardy, J. I. B. Camargo +2
In terms of scientific output, the best way to study solar system bodies is sending spacecraft to make in-situ measurements or to observe at close distance. Probably, the second be…
"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…
