Two Distinct Populations of Dark Comets Delineated by Orbits and Sizes
Darryl Z. Seligman, Davide Farnocchia, Marco Micheli +7
Small bodies are capable of delivering essential prerequisites for the development of life, such as volatiles and organics, to the terrestrial planets. For example, empirical evide…
Rubin ToO 2024: Envisioning the Vera C. Rubin Observatory LSST Target of Opportunity program
Igor Andreoni, Raffaella Margutti, John Banovetz +86
The Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) at Vera C. Rubin Observatory is planned to begin in the Fall of 2025. The LSST survey cadence has been designed via a community-driven pr…
Strong Nongravitational Accelerations and the Potential for Misidentification of Near-Earth Objects
Aster G. Taylor, Darryl Z. Seligman, Matthew J. Holman +5
Nongravitational accelerations in the absence of observed activity have recently been identified on NEOs, opening the question of the prevalence of anisotropic mass-loss in the nea…
The Dynamical Origins of the Dark Comets and a Proposed Evolutionary Track
Aster G. Taylor, Jordan K. Steckloff, Darryl Z. Seligman +5
So-called 'dark comets' are small, morphologically inactive near-Earth objects (NEOs) that exhibit nongravitational accelerations inconsistent with radiative effects. These objects…
Evolution of Flare Activity in GKM Stars Younger than 300 Myr over Five Years of TESS Observations
Adina D. Feinstein, Darryl Z. Seligman, Kevin France +2
Stellar flares are short-duration ( hours) bursts of radiation associated with surface magnetic reconnection events. Stellar magnetic activity generally decreases as a function…
