Albedos in the Kuiper Belt [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
I have focused my research on the visual geometric albedos of transneptunian objects (TNOs), how the albedo varies with dynamical class, and whether or not it is correlated to orbital parameters.

Near-infrared color properties of Kuiper Belt objects and Centaurs: Final results from the ESO Large Program

open access: yes, 2006
International audienceWe present near-IR JHK broadband photometry for 17 Kuiper Belt objects (KBOs) and Centaurs. The observations were performed within the ESO Large Program on the ``Physical Properties of Kuiper Belt Objects and Centaurs'' from 2001 ...

OSSOS observes planet-formation structure in the main Kuiper Belt

open access: yes, 2018
International audienceThe Outer Solar System Origins Survey (OSSOS) has now completed its detailed search for moving objects in the transneptunian region. For the main Kuiper Belt, the survey tracked 100% of the detected objects to high-precision orbits (

open access: yes, 2001
We examine the radial distribution of the Kuiper Belt objects (KBOs) using a method that is insensitive to observational bias effects. This technique allows the use of the discovery distances of all KBOs, independent of orbital classification or ...
