Photometric observations of six asteroids carried out in Simeiz in 2002

open access: yesВісник Астрономічної школи, 2004
The photometric observations of six asteroids observed in Simeiz Observatory in 2002 are presented. The lightcurves of four near-Earth asteroids (1036 Ganymed, 6455 1992 HE, 31669 1999 JT6, 2002 HU11) and two main-belt asteroids (6317 Dreyfus and 22338 ...

The Solar System Notification Alert Processing System (SNAPS): Design, Architecture, and First Data Release (SNAPShot1)

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present here the design, architecture, and first data release for the Solar System Notification Alert Processing System (SNAPS). SNAPS is a solar system broker that ingests alert data from all-sky surveys.

Combining asteroid models derived by lightcurve inversion with asteroidal occultation silhouettes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Asteroid sizes can be directly measured by observing occultations of stars by asteroids. When there are enough observations across the path of the shadow, the asteroid's projected silhouette can be reconstructed. Asteroid shape models derived from photometry by the lightcurve inversion method enable us to predict the orientation of an asteroid for the ...

New Paradigms For Asteroid Formation

open access: yes, 2015
Asteroids and meteorites provide key evidence on the formation of planetesimals in the Solar System. Asteroids are traditionally thought to form in a bottom-up process by coagulation within a population of initially km-scale planetesimals.

ASTEROIDS EXPLORATION WITH BALDONE SCHMIDT TELE-SCOPE

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2018
CCD observations of asteroids were ob-tained in 2008 with the Baldone Schmidt telescope (aper-ture/diameter/focal length = 80/120/240 cm) at the Bal-done Astrophysical observatory (code 069) of the Institute of Astronomy of the University of Latvia.

Measuring the Orbit Drift of Near-Earth Asteroids by the Yarkovsky Effect

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The Yarkovsky effect causes the semimajor axis drift of near-Earth asteroids. The drift can be detected by a precise orbit determination process. Using the proposed algorithm, 2233 out of 27,078 near-Earth asteroids are chosen as the initial candidates ...

Asteroid mass estimation using Markov-chain Monte Carlo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Estimates for asteroid masses are based on their gravitational perturbations on the orbits of other objects such as Mars, spacecraft, or other asteroids and/or their satellites. In the case of asteroid-asteroid perturbations, this leads to an inverse problem in at least 13 dimensions where the aim is to derive the mass of the perturbing asteroid(s) and

Predicting Performance of Hall Effect Ion Source Using Machine Learning

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
This study introduces HallNN, a machine learning tool for predicting Hall effect ion source performance using a neural network ensemble trained on data generated from numerical simulations. HallNN provides faster and more accurate predictions than numerical methods and traditional scaling laws, making it valuable for designing and optimizing Hall ...

Asteroid Spin-Rate Study using the Intermediate Palomar Transient Factory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Two dedicated asteroid rotation-period surveys have been carried out using data taken on January 6-9 and February 20-23 of 2014 by the Intermediate Palomar Transient Factory (iPTF) in the $R$~band with $\sim 20$-min cadence. The total survey area covered

Near-Earth Asteroids as Possible Parent Bodies of Meteor Streams [PDF]

open access: yesУчёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Естественные науки, 2016
The genetic relationship of meteor streams with near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) is being actively studied. A genetic link with the asteroid is possible only for streams in which meteoroids have the geocentric speed smaller than 50 km/s, thereby meaning the ...
