Investigating Possible Spindown of Arrokoth by Collisions with Small Classical Kuiper Belt Objects

Introduction: The New Horizons flyby of Arrokoth revealed an ancient, contact binary planetesimal [1,2]. Arrokoth’s both lobes’ respective principal axes are aligned within a few degrees [2], and such configuration suggests a co-orbiting Arrokoth before the coalescence of its two lobes [3].

The absolute magnitude distribution of cold classical Kuiper belt objects

2016
We report measurements of the low inclination component of the main Kuiper Belt showing a size freqency distribution very steep for sizes larger than H_r ~ 6.5-7.0 and then a flattening to shallower slope that is still steeper than the collisional equilibrium slope.The Outer Solar System Origins Survey (OSSOS) is ongoing and is expected to detect over ...

TNOs are Cool: Analysis of Classical Kuiper Belt Objects from Herschel Space Observatory Data

2012
We present results from the sample analysis of classical Kuiper belt objects (CKBO) observed within the open time key program "TNOs are Cool" [Muller et al. 2009, Earth, Moon, Planets 105] of Herschel Space Observatory. About half of this sample was published in Vilenius et al.

Analysis of classical Kuiper-belt objects and Haumea collisional family from the Herschel and Spitzer observations

2014
We have analyzed space-based data at far-IR wavelengths in order to determine physical properties of Kuiper-belt objects (KBOs), also known as transneptunian objects (TNO), in the dynamical class of classical Kuiper-belt objects (CKBO). This dynamical class also contains most of the Haumea family members, the only known collisional family among TNOs ...
