Colors of Irregular Satellites of Saturn with DECam [PDF]
, 2022 We report g-r and r-i new colors for 21 Saturn Irregular Satellites, among them, 4 previously unreported. This is the highest number of Saturn Irregular satellites reported in a single survey. These satellites were measured by "stacking" their observations to increase their signal without trailing.

Debris rings from extrasolar irregular satellites
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023 ABSTRACT Irregular satellites are the minor bodies found orbiting all four Solar system giant planets, with large semimajor axes, eccentricities, and inclinations. Previous studies have determined that the Solar system’s irregular satellites are extremely collisionally evolved populations today, having lost ∼99 per cent of their initial ...

‘Life’ of dust originating from the irregular satellites of Jupiter
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023 ABSTRACT The irregular satellites of Jupiter produce dust particles through the impact of interplanetary micrometeoroids. In this paper, the dynamics of these particles is studied by both high-accuracy numerical simulation and analytical theory, in order to learn their transport, final fate, and spatial distribution.

Debris Rings From Extrasolar Irregular Satellites
, 2021 Irregular satellites are the minor bodies found orbiting all four Solar System giant planets with large semimajor axes, eccentricities, and inclinations. Previous studies have determined that the Solar System's irregular satellites are extremely collisionally evolved populations today, having lost ~99% of their initial mass over the course of hundreds ...

Chaoticity of the Jovian Irregular Satellites
, 2009 Until now, the study of the chaoticity of the Jovian irregular satellites has been restricted to several ones and investigated on a limited integration time. We have extended these studies to the whole number of satellites and in time integration.

CAPTURE OF IRREGULAR SATELLITES AT JUPITER [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2014 The irregular satellites of outer planets are thought to have been captured from heliocentric orbits. The exact nature of the capture process, however, remains uncertain. We examine the possibility that irregular satellites were captured from the planetesimal disk during the early Solar System instability when encounters between the outer planets ...

Satellite image reconstruction from an irregular sampling [PDF]
2008 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing, 2008 We propose a new method to solve a problem of image restoration with many different aspects: reconstruction from irregular samples, deconvolution and denoising. The model we propose is robust to different kind of noises, in particular, impulse and Gaussian noise. We compare our results to the ones obtained in [1] and show that our problem presents some

NEOWISE: OBSERVATIONS OF THE IRREGULAR SATELLITES OF JUPITER AND SATURN [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2015 We present thermal model fits for 11 Jovian and 3 Saturnian irregular satellites based on measurements from the WISE/NEOWISE dataset. Our fits confirm spacecraft-measured diameters for the objects with in situ observations (Himalia and Phoebe) and provide diameters and albedo for 12 previously unmeasured objects, 10 Jovian and 2 Saturnian irregular ...

A REGION VOID OF IRREGULAR SATELLITES AROUND JUPITER [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2008 An interesting feature of the giant planets of our solar system is the existence of regions around these objects where no irregular satellites are observed. Surveys have shown that, around Jupiter, such a region extends from the outermost regular satellite Callisto, to the vicinity of Themisto, the innermost irregular satellite.
