Observational Data and Orbits of the Asteroids Discovered at the Molėtai Observatory in 2008–2009
We present the statistics of the asteroids observed and discovered at the Molėtai Observatory, Lithuania, in 2008–2009 within the project for astrometric observations of the near-Earth objects (NEOs), the main belt asteroids and comets.

Small Near-Earth Asteroids as a Source of Meteorites [PDF]
Small asteroids intersecting Earth's orbit can deliver extraterrestrial rocks to the Earth, called meteorites. This process is accompanied by a luminous phenomena in the atmosphere, called bolides or fireballs.

Results of photometry of selected asteroids from the Hilda group
This paper presents the first results of CCD photometry of selected Hilda group asteroids. These observations are part of a program carried out in the Institute of Astronomy of the Kharkiv National University, that is aimed to receive the parameters of ...

New and updated convex shape models of asteroids based on optical data from a large collaboration network [PDF]
Context. Asteroid modeling efforts in the last decade resulted in a comprehensive dataset of almost 400 convex shape models and their rotation states. These efforts already provided deep insight into physical properties of main-belt asteroids or large ...

Nature of bright C-complex asteroids [PDF]
Most C-complex asteroids have albedo values less than 0.1, but there are some high-albedo (bright) C-complex asteroids with albedo values exceeding 0.1. To reveal the nature and origin of bright C-complex asteroids, we conducted spectroscopic observations of the asteroids in visible and near-infrared wavelength regions.

Formation and Evolution of Binary Asteroids [PDF]
Satellites of asteroids have been discovered in nearly every known small body population, and a remarkable aspect of the known satellites is the diversity of their properties.

The 3 $\mu$m Spectrum of Jupiter's Irregular Satellite Himalia [PDF]
We present a medium resolution spectrum of Jupiter's irregular satellite Himalia covering the critical 3 $\mu$m spectral region. The spectrum shows no evidence for aqueously altered phyllosilicates, as had been suggested from the tentative detection of a
