O primeiro CBDO, realizado no ITA em julho de 1982, foi organizado por iniciativa do Dr. Wagner Sessin, e tinha como finalidade principal reunir pesquisadores das áreas astronômica e espacial, interessados nos problemas de Mecânica Celeste Pura e Aplicada. Esse colóquio não recebeu a denominação genérica dos demais, iniciada a partir do segundo colóquio. O primeiro colóquio teve como título: “Movimentos de Satélites Artificiais: Teoria, Determinação e Aplicações” e dele participaram 51 pesquisadores e pós-graduandos de vários estados brasileiros: São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Paraná, Minas Gerais e Pernambuco. Para mais detalhes das realizações do Evento, ver http://www.astro.iag.usp.br/~dinamica/cbdo.htm A atual edição do CBDO conta com 200 atividades inscritas, divididas nos seguintes formatos: Apresentações orais de palestrantes convidados do exterior e do Brasil: 14 Apresentações orais de palestrantes selecionados pelo Comitê Científico: 22 Comunicações em formato pôster: 164 Índice Este livro de resumos contém: Homenagem ao Prof. Sylvio Ferraz-Mello………..

    Asteroid Family Physical Properties, Numerical Sim- Constraints on the Ages of Families

    Asteroid Family Physical Properties Joseph R. Masiero NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory/Caltech Francesca DeMeo Harvard/Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics Toshihiro Kasuga Planetary Exploration Research Center, Chiba Institute of Technology Alex H. Parker Southwest Research Institute An asteroid family is typically formed when a larger parent body undergoes a catastrophic collisional disruption, and as such family members are expected to show physical properties that closely trace the composition and mineralogical evolution of the parent. Recently a number of new datasets have been released that probe the physical properties of a large number of asteroids, many of which are members of identified families. We review these data sets and the composite properties of asteroid families derived from this plethora of new data. We also discuss the limitations of the current data, and the open questions in the field. 1.

  • Physical and Dynamical Properties of Asteroid Families

    Physical and Dynamical Properties of Asteroid Families

    Zappalà et al.: Properties of Asteroid Families 619 Physical and Dynamical Properties of Asteroid Families V. Zappalà, A. Cellino, A. Dell’Oro Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica, Osservatorio Astronomico di Torino P. Paolicchi University of Pisa The availability of a number of statistically reliable asteroid families and the independent confirmation of their likely collisional origin from dedicated spectroscopic campaigns has been a major breakthrough, making it possible to develop detailed studies of the physical properties of these groupings. Having been produced in energetic collisional events, families are an invaluable source of information on the physics governing these phenomena. In particular, they provide information about the size distribution of the fragments, and on the overall properties of the original ejection velocity fields. Important results have been obtained during the last 10 years on these subjects, with important implications for the general understanding of the collisional history of the asteroid main belt, and the origin of near-Earth asteroids. Some important problems have been raised from these studies and are currently debated. In particular, it has been difficult so far to reconcile the inferred properties of family-forming events with current understanding of the physics of catastrophic collisional breakup. Moreover, the contribution of families to the overall asteroid inventory, mainly at small sizes, is currently controversial. Recent investigations are also aimed at understanding which kind of dynamical evolution might have affected family members since the time of their formation. In addition to potential consequences on the interpretation of current data, there is some speculative possibility of obtaining some estimate of the ages of these groupings.

Basaltic asteroids (spectrally classified as V-types) are believed to be fragments of large differentiated bodies. The majority of them are found in the inner part of the asteroid belt, and are current or past members of the Vesta family. Recently, some V-type asteroids have been discovered far from the Vesta family supporting the hypothesis of the presence of multiple basaltic asteroids in the early solar system. The discovery of basaltic asteroids in the outer belt challenged the models of the radial extent and the variability of the temperature distribution in the early solar system. Aims. We aim to identify new basaltic V-type asteroids using near-infrared colors of ∼ 40000 asteroids observed by the VHS-VISTA survey and compiled in the MOVIS-C catalogue. We also want to study their near-infrared colors and to study the near-infrared color distribution of the Vesta dynamical family. Methods.

The present paper aims to derive a new classification scheme for SDSS MOC asteroid colors that is compatible with previous taxonomies based on spectroscopic data. The distribution of these can give important clues to the formation and evolution of this region of the Solar System, as well as to locate candidates with mineralogically interesting spectra for detailed observations. Methods. The methodology is based on the large database SDSS MOC4. Templates of the main taxonomic classes are derived and then used to classify the asteroid observations in the SDSS MOC4. The derived taxonomic scheme is compatible with the Bus taxonomy and is suitable to the peculiarities of the SDSS observations, in particular, the low spectral resolution. Results. Density maps of the seven classes defined by the method reproduce classical results for the background which is mainly dominated by the S p class in the inner belt and by the Xp and the Cp classes beyond 2.8 AU. It also shows new structures, such as the fact that the Xp and Cp seem evenly distributed in the inner belt while in the outer belt the S p class increase in density only at the location of asteroid families.

  • NEAR EARTH ASTEROIDS (Neas) a CHRONOLOGY of MILESTONES 1800 - 2200

    NEAR EARTH ASTEROIDS (Neas) a CHRONOLOGY of MILESTONES 1800 - 2200

    INTERNATIONAL ASTRONOMICAL UNION UNION ASTRONOMIQUE INTERNATIONALE NEAR EARTH ASTEROIDS (NEAs) A CHRONOLOGY OF MILESTONES 1800 - 2200 8 July 2013 – version 41.0 on-line: www.iau.org/public/nea/ (completeness not pretended) INTRODUCTION Asteroids, or minor planets, are small and often irregularly shaped celestial bodies. The known majority of them orbit the Sun in the so-called main asteroid belt, between the orbits of the planets Mars and Jupiter. However, due to gravitational perturbations caused by planets as well as non- gravitational perturbations, a continuous migration brings main-belt asteroids closer to Sun, thus crossing the orbits of Mars, Earth, Venus and Mercury. An asteroid is coined a Near Earth Asteroid (NEA) when its trajectory brings it within 1.3 AU [Astronomical Unit; for units, see below in section Glossary and Units] from the Sun and hence within 0.3 AU of the Earth's orbit. The largest known NEA is 1036 Ganymed (1924 TD, H = 9.45 mag, D = 31.7 km, Po = 4.34 yr). A NEA is said to be a Potentially Hazardous Asteroid (PHA) when its orbit comes to within 0.05 AU (= 19.5 LD [Lunar Distance] = 7.5 million km) of the Earth's orbit, the so-called Earth Minimum Orbit Intersection Distance (MOID), and has an absolute magnitude H < 22 mag (i.e., its diameter D > 140 m). The largest known PHA is 4179 Toutatis (1989 AC, H = 15.3 mag, D = 4.6×2.4×1.9 km, Po = 4.03 yr). As of 3 July 2013: - 903 NEAs (NEOWISE in the IR, 1 February 2011: 911) are known with D > 1000 m (H < 17.75 mag), i.e., 93 ± 4 % of an estimated population of 966 ± 45 NEAs (NEOWISE in the IR, 1 February 2011: 981 ± 19) (see: http://targetneo.jhuapl.edu/pdfs/sessions/TargetNEO-Session2-Harris.pdf, http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2011ApJ...743..156M), including 160 PHAs.

Bus University of Hawai‘i A. Doressoundiram Observatoire de Paris–Meudon D. Lazzaro Observatório Nacional, Rio de Janeiro Asteroid families have been the target of several dedicated campaigns of spectroscopic obser- vations during the last 10 years. Preliminary studies were mainly devoted to obtain a confirma- tion of the cosmochemical reliability of groupings identified by purely statistical analyses of the distributions of objects in the space of the orbital proper elements. These early attempts led to some spectacular confirmations of the common collisional origin of some families, like that associated with 4 Vesta. Subsequently, spectroscopic investigations started to be mostly focused on the issue of characterizing the overall mineralogical compositions of different families, at the same time looking for possible evidence of thermal differentiation of the original parent bodies and for possible evidence of ongoing space-weathering processes. Spectroscopy has also proven to be crucially needed to identify likely interlopers that can seriously affect the derived size distributions of families and the reconstruction of the original fields of ejection velocity of the fragments. At the same time, spectroscopic properties have been recognized as an invaluable tool to assess the real memberships of families mutually overlapping in the space of proper elements. Moreover, spectroscopic surveys have in general been found to be an excellent comple- ment to conventional family searches purely based on the identification of concentrations of objects in the proper-element space. A challenging unsolved problem comes from the fact that several families have been found to exhibit peculiar spectroscopic properties.

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