Asteroid Photometric Phase Functions From Bayesian Lightcurve Inversion

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
Photometry is an important tool for characterizing the physical properties of asteroids. An asteroid’s photometric lightcurve and phase curve refer to the variation of the asteroid’s disk-integrated brightness in time and in phase angle (the Sun-asteroid-

Optical Imaging Instruments and Main Science Results of Small Body Exploration: A Review

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
Compared with planets and their moons, small bodies retain the characteristics of their early formation. Therefore small bodies, especially Near Earth Asteroids (NEA), have become one of the most valuable targets in space exploration. This paper presents

An Algorithmic Approach for Detecting Bolides with the Geostationary Lightning Mapper

open access: yesSensors, 2019
The Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) instrument onboard the GOES 16 and 17 satellites can be used to detect bolides in the atmosphere. This capacity is unique because GLM provides semi-global, continuous coverage and releases its measurements ...
