Secular Light Curve of Exocomet 3I/ATLAS, and its Location on a Comet Evolutionary Diagram

Ignacio Ferrin, Jose Garrido, Charles Triana +7

In this work we will create the Secular Light Curve (SLC) of exocomet 3I/ATLAS, using the SLC-Methodology (Ferrin 2010-2023). The SLCs give a throve of new information and allow th…

The rings of (2060) Chiron: Evidence of an evolving system

C. L. Pereira, F. Braga-Ribas, B. Sicardy +54

The centaur (2060) Chiron has long been a candidate for hosting material in orbit, based on occultation and photometric and spectroscopic data. Here, we present a multichord stella…

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…

Size and Shape Constraints of (486958) Arrokoth from Stellar Occultations

Marc W. Buie, Simon B. Porter, Peter Tamblyn +130

We present the results from four stellar occultations by (486958) Arrokoth, the flyby target of the New Horizons extended mission. Three of the four efforts led to positive detecti…

The trans-Neptunian object (84922) 2003 VS2 through stellar occultations

Gustavo Benedetti-Rossi, P. Santos-Sanz, J. L. Ortiz +50

We present results from three world-wide campaigns that resulted in the detections of two single-chord and one multi-chord stellar occultations by the Plutino object (84922) 2003~V…

The structure of Chariklo's rings from stellar occultations

D. Bérard, B. Sicardy, J. I. B. Camargo +79

Two narrow and dense rings (called C1R and C2R) were discovered around the Centaur object (10199) Chariklo during a stellar occultation observed on 2013 June 3. Following this disc…

A ring system detected around the Centaur (10199) Chariklo

F. Braga-Ribas, B. Sicardy, J. L. Ortiz +61

Until now, rings have been detected in the Solar System exclusively around the four giant planets. Here we report the discovery of the first minor-body ring system around the Centa…
