Compositional properties of NEOs
The study of planet-crossing asteroids is of both practical and fundamental importance. As they are closer than asteroids in the Main Belt, we have access to a smaller size... -
occultation events by (307261) 2002 MS4
The physical characterization of the trans-Neptunian objects is essential for improving our understanding of the solar system's formation and evolution. Stellar occultation is a... -
Spins of asteroids derived from DR3 photometry
Gaia Data Release 3 contains accurate photometric observations of more than 150000 asteroids covering a time interval of 34 months. With a total of about 3000000 measurements, a... -
Near-Earth Object (NEO) properties
Near-Earth Objects (NEOs) are being discovered at an ever increasing rate. However, their physical characterisation significantly lags behind. In particular, the taxonomic... -
The two rings of (50000) Quaoar
Quaoar is a classical trans-Neptunian object (TNO) with an area-equivalent diameter of 1100 km and an orbital semi-major axis of 43.3 astronomical units. Based on stellar... -
Properties of near-Earth objects
Increasing our knowledge of the orbits and compositions of Near-Earth Objects (NEOs) is important for a better understanding of the evolution of the Solar System and of life.... -
Compositions of binary asteroids
Small binary asteroid systems and pairs are thought to form through fission induced by spin up via the Yarkovsky-O'Keefe-Radzievskii-Paddack (YORP) effect. This process is... -
(65) Cybele VLT/SPHERE disk-resolved images
Cybele asteroids constitute an appealing reservoir of primitive material genetically linked to the outer Solar System, and the physical properties (size and shape) of the... -
Photometry data of (136199) Eris
The rotational states of the members in the dwarf planet - satellite systems in the transneptunian region are determined by the formation conditions and the tidal interaction... -
Asteroids absolute colors and phase coeff.
We use phase curves of small bodies to measure absolute magnitudes and, together with complementary theoretical and laboratory results, to understand their surfaces' micro and... -
824 fireballs observed in 2017-2018
A catalog of 824 fireballs, i.e. bright meteors, observed by a dedicated network of all-sky digital photographic cameras in central Europe is presented. The current status of... -
Asteroids zero-phase angle taxonomy class
We are living in the era of large catalogs. Everyday many observatories, terrestrial and space-based, provide us with numerous data to do science. In this context, statistical... -
Kharkiv database asteroid absolute magnitudes
We present a database of the absolute magnitudes of asteroids named the Kharkiv Asteroid Absolute Magnitude Database (KhAAMD). The database includes a homogeneous set of the... -
Asteroid spin-states of 4 Gyr-old family
Families of asteroids generated by the collisional fragmentation of a common parent body have been identified using clustering methods of asteroids in their proper orbital... -
Calern Asteroid Polarisation Survey
The Calern Asteroid Polarimetric Survey (CAPS), a collaboration between the INAF Astrophysical Observatory of Torino (Italy) and the Observatoire de la Cote d'Azur (Nice,... -
Asteroid taxonomy
The classification of the minor bodies of the Solar System based on observables has been continuously developed and iterated over the past 40 yr. While prior iterations followed... -
Quaoar's stellar occultation observed by CHEOPS
Stellar occultation is a powerful technique that allows the determination of some physical parameters of the occulting object. The result depends on the photometric accuracy,... -
Feature-based asteroid taxonomy in 3D color space
The taxonomic classification of asteroids has been mostly based on spectroscopic observations with wavelengths spanning from the visible (VIS) to the near-infrared (NIR).... -
Asteroid trails in HST images
Large and publicly available astronomical archives open up new possibilities to search and study Solar System objects. However, advanced techniques are required to deal with the... -
Catalogs of potential detections of asteroids
The store of data collected in public astronomical archives across the world is continuously expanding and, thus, providing a convenient interface for accessing this information...
