  • CAPTURE of TRANS-NEPTUNIAN PLANETESIMALS in the MAIN ASTEROID BELT David Vokrouhlický1, William F

CAPTURE OF TRANS-NEPTUNIAN PLANETESIMALS IN THE MAIN ASTEROID BELT David Vokrouhlický1, William F. Bottke2, and David Nesvorný2 1 Institute of Astronomy, Charles University, V Holešovičkách 2, CZ–18000 Prague 8, Czech Republic; [email protected] 2 Department of Space Studies, Southwest Research Institute, 1050 Walnut Street, Suite 300, Boulder, CO 80302; [email protected], [email protected] Received 2016 February 9; accepted 2016 April 21; published 2016 July 26 ABSTRACT The orbital evolution of the giant planets after nebular gas was eliminated from the Solar System but before the planets reached their final configuration was driven by interactions with a vast sea of leftover planetesimals. Several variants of planetary migration with this kind of system architecture have been proposed. Here, we focus on a highly successful case, which assumes that there were once five planets in the outer Solar System in a stable configuration: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and a Neptune-like body. Beyond these planets existed a primordial disk containing thousands of Pluto-sized bodies, ∼50 million D > 100 km bodies, and a multitude of smaller bodies. This system eventually went through a dynamical instability that scattered the planetesimals and allowed the planets to encounter one another. The extra Neptune-like body was ejected via a Jupiter encounter, but not before it helped to populate stable niches with disk planetesimals across the Solar System. Here, we investigate how interactions between the fifth giant planet, Jupiter, and disk planetesimals helped to capture disk planetesimals into both the asteroid belt and first-order mean-motion resonances with Jupiter.

  • The Minor Planet Bulletin and How the Situation Has Gone from One Mt Tarana Observatory of Trying to Fill Pages to One of Fitting Everything In
    THE MINOR PLANET BULLETIN OF THE MINOR PLANETS SECTION OF THE BULLETIN ASSOCIATION OF LUNAR AND PLANETARY OBSERVERS VOLUME 33, NUMBER 2, A.D. 2006 APRIL-JUNE 29. PHOTOMETRY OF ASTEROIDS 133 CYRENE, adjusted up or down to line up with the V-band data). The near- 454 MATHESIS, 477 ITALIA, AND 2264 SABRINA perfect overlay of V- and R-band data show no evidence of color change as the asteroid rotates. This result replicates the lightcurve Robert K. Buchheim period reported by Harris et al. (1984), and matches the period and Altimira Observatory lightcurve shape reported by Behrend (2005) at his website. 18 Altimira, Coto de Caza, CA 92679 USA [email protected] (Received: 4 November Revised: 21 November) Photometric studies of asteroids 133 Cyrene, 454 Mathesis, 477 Italia and 2264 Sabrina are reported. The lightcurve period for Cyrene of 12.707±0.015 h (with amplitude 0.22 mag) confirms prior studies. The lightcurve period of 8.37784±0.00003 h (amplitude 0.32 mag) for Mathesis differs from previous studies. For Italia, color indices (B-V)=0.87±0.07, (V-R)=0.48±0.05, and phase curve parameters H=10.4, G=0.15 have been determined. For Sabrina, this study provides the first reported lightcurve period 43.41±0.02 h, with 0.30 mag amplitude. Altimira Observatory, located in southern California, is equipped with a 0.28-m Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope (Celestron NexStar- 454 Mathesis. DiMartino et al. (1994) reported a rotation period of 11 operating at F/6.3), and CCD imager (ST-8XE NABG, with 7.075 h with amplitude 0.28 mag for this asteroid, based on two Johnson-Cousins filters).

    THE MINOR PLANET BULLETIN OF THE MINOR PLANETS SECTION OF THE BULLETIN ASSOCIATION OF LUNAR AND PLANETARY OBSERVERS VOLUME 44, NUMBER 2, A.D. 2017 APRIL-JUNE 87. 319 LEONA AND 341 CALIFORNIA – Lightcurves from all sessions are then composited with no TWO VERY SLOWLY ROTATING ASTEROIDS adjustment of instrumental magnitudes. A search should be made for possible tumbling behavior. This is revealed whenever Frederick Pilcher successive rotational cycles show significant variation, and Organ Mesa Observatory (G50) quantified with simultaneous 2 period software. In addition, it is 4438 Organ Mesa Loop useful to obtain a small number of all-night sessions for each Las Cruces, NM 88011 USA object near opposition to look for possible small amplitude short [email protected] period variations. Lorenzo Franco Observations to obtain the data used in this paper were made at the Balzaretto Observatory (A81) Organ Mesa Observatory with a 0.35-meter Meade LX200 GPS Rome, ITALY Schmidt-Cassegrain (SCT) and SBIG STL-1001E CCD. Exposures were 60 seconds, unguided, with a clear filter. All Petr Pravec measurements were calibrated from CMC15 r’ values to Cousins Astronomical Institute R magnitudes for solar colored field stars. Photometric Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic measurement is with MPO Canopus software. To reduce the Fricova 1, CZ-25165 number of points on the lightcurves and make them easier to read, Ondrejov, CZECH REPUBLIC data points on all lightcurves constructed with MPO Canopus software have been binned in sets of 3 with a maximum time (Received: 2016 Dec 20) difference of 5 minutes between points in each bin.

Current amount of ∼500 asteroid models derived from the disk-integrated photometry by the lightcurve inversion method allows us to study not only the spin-vector properties of the whole population of MBAs, but also of several individual collisional families. Aims. We create a data set of 152 asteroids that were identified by the HCM method as members of ten collisional families, among them are 31 newly derived unique models and 24 new models with well-constrained pole-ecliptic latitudes of the spin axes.

The phase-integral values for asteroids of different geometric albedo range from 0.34 to 0.54 with an average value of 0.44. These values can be used for the determination of the Bond albedo of asteroids. Estimates for the phase-integral values using the G1 and G2 parameters are in very good agreement with the available observational data.

Fornasier1,2, C. Lantz1,2, M.A. Barucci1, M. Lazzarin3 Abstract This work focuses on the study of the aqueous alteration process which acted in the main belt and produced hydrated minerals on the altered asteroids. Hydrated minerals have been found mainly on Mars surface, on main belt primitive asteroids and possibly also on few TNOs. These materials have been produced by hydration of pristine anhydrous silicates during the aqueous alteration process, that, to be active, needed the presence of liquid water under low temperature conditions (below 320 K) to chemically alter the minerals.

LIGHTCURVE AND PHASE CURVE OF 1130 SKULD Robinson (2009) from his data taken in 2002. There is no evidence of any change of (V-R) color with asteroid rotation. Robert K. Buchheim Altimira Observatory As a result of the relatively short period of this lightcurve, every 18 Altimira, Coto de Caza, CA 92679 (USA) night provided at least one minimum and maximum of the [email protected] lightcurve. The phase curve was determined by polling both the maximum and minimum points of each night’s lightcurve. Since (Received: 29 December) The lightcurve period of asteroid 1130 Skuld is confirmed to be P = 4.807 ± 0.002 h. Its phase curve is well-matched by a slope parameter G = 0.25 ±0.01 The 2009 October-November apparition of asteroid 1130 Skuld presented an excellent opportunity to measure its phase curve to very small solar phase angles. I devoted 13 nights over a two- month period to gathering photometric data on the object, over which time the solar phase angle ranged from α = 0.3 deg to α = 17.6 deg. All observations used Altimira Observatory’s 0.28-m Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope (SCT) working at f/6.3, SBIG ST- 8XE NABG CCD camera, and photometric V- and R-band filters. Exposure durations were 3 or 4 minutes with the SNR > 100 in all images, which were reduced with flat and dark frames.

    THE MINOR PLANET BULLETIN OF THE MINOR PLANETS SECTION OF THE BULLETIN ASSOCIATION OF LUNAR AND PLANETARY OBSERVERS VOLUME 38, NUMBER 2, A.D. 2011 APRIL-JUNE 71. LIGHTCURVES OF 10452 ZUEV, (14657) 1998 YU27, AND (15700) 1987 QD Gary A. Vander Haagen Stonegate Observatory, 825 Stonegate Road Ann Arbor, MI 48103 [email protected] (Received: 28 October) Lightcurve observations and analysis revealed the following periods and amplitudes for three asteroids: 10452 Zuev, 9.724 ± 0.002 h, 0.38 ± 0.03 mag; (14657) 1998 YU27, 15.43 ± 0.03 h, 0.21 ± 0.05 mag; and (15700) 1987 QD, 9.71 ± 0.02 h, 0.16 ± 0.05 mag. Photometric data of three asteroids were collected using a 0.43- meter PlaneWave f/6.8 corrected Dall-Kirkham astrograph, a SBIG ST-10XME camera, and V-filter at Stonegate Observatory. The camera was binned 2x2 with a resulting image scale of 0.95 arc- seconds per pixel. Image exposures were 120 seconds at –15C. Candidates for analysis were selected using the MPO2011 Asteroid Viewing Guide and all photometric data were obtained and analyzed using MPO Canopus (Bdw Publishing, 2010). Published asteroid lightcurve data were reviewed in the Asteroid Lightcurve Database (LCDB; Warner et al., 2009). The magnitudes in the plots (Y-axis) are not sky (catalog) values but differentials from the average sky magnitude of the set of comparisons. The value in the Y-axis label, “alpha”, is the solar phase angle at the time of the first set of observations. All data were corrected to this phase angle using G = 0.15, unless otherwise stated.
