Optical Colors as Compressed Spectral Information for Trans-Neptunian Objects

Hsing-Wen Lin, Larissa Markwardt, Kevin Napier +3

Broadband optical colors have long been recognized as tracers of the surface spectral properties of trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs), yet their relationship to near-infrared (NIR) sp…

Probabilistic Spectral Reconstruction of Trans-Neptunian Objects from Sparse Photometry: A Framework for Taxonomy, Survey Optimization, and Outlier Detection

Hsing Wen Lin, Larissa Markwardt, Kevin J. Napier +3

Near-infrared (near-IR) spectroscopy provides critical constraints on the surface composition of trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs), but spectroscopic observations remain limited compa…

An Efficient Shift-and-Stack Algorithm Applied to Detection Catalogs

Steven Stetzler, Mario Jurić, Pedro H. Bernardinelli +22

The boundary of solar system object discovery lies in detecting its faintest members. However, their discovery in detection catalogs from imaging surveys is fundamentally limited b…

The DECam Ecliptic Exploration Project (DEEP). VII. The Strengths of Three Superfast Rotating Main-belt Asteroids from a Preliminary Search of DEEP Data

Ryder Strauss, Andrew McNeill, David E. Trilling +19

Superfast rotators (SFRs) are small solar system objects that rotate faster than generally possible for a cohesionless rubble pile. Their rotational characteristics allow us to mak…

The DECam Ecliptic Exploration Project (DEEP) II. Observational Strategy and Design

Chadwick A. Trujillo, Cesar Fuentes, David W. Gerdes +19

We present the DECam Ecliptic Exploration Project (DEEP) survey strategy including observing cadence for orbit determination, exposure times, field pointings and filter choices. Th…

The DECam Ecliptic Exploration Project (DEEP) VI: first multi-year observations of trans-Neptunian objects

Hayden Smotherman, Pedro H. Bernardinelli, Stephen K. N. Portillo +25

We present the first set of trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) observed on multiple nights in data taken from the DECam Ecliptic Exploration Project (DEEP). Of these 110 TNOs, 105 do n…
