The NEO Surveyor Near-Earth Asteroid Known Object Model [PDF]
The known near-Earth object (NEO) population consists of over 32,000 objects, with a yearly discovery rate of over 3000 NEOs per year. An essential component of the next generation of NEO surveys is an understanding of the population of known objects ...

Challenges in Identifying Artificial Objects in the Near-Earth Object Population: Spectral Characterization of 2020 SO [PDF]
Since the dawn of the Space Age, hundreds of payloads have been launched into heliocentric space. As near-Earth object (NEO) surveys search deeper for small asteroids, more artificial objects in heliocentric orbits are being discovered.

Klet Observatory – European Contribution to Detecting and Tracking of Near Earth Objects
Near Earth Object (NEO) research is an expanding field of astronomy. Is is important for solar system science and also for protecting human society from asteroid and comet hazard. A near-Earth object (NEO) can be defined as an asteroid or comet that has

Calculation of nonlimit active earth pressure of retaining walls based on curved sliding surface [PDF]
The shape of the sliding surface and the displacement of the wall have important effects on the earth pressure of retaining walls. Taking the cohesive backfill behind the inclined retaining wall as the research object, the relationship between the ...

Algorithms for Moving Object Detection: YSTAR-NEOPAT Survey Program [PDF]
We developed and compared two automatic algorithms for moving object detections in the YSTAR-NEOPAT sky survey program. One method, called starlist comparison method, is to identify moving object candidates by comparing the photometry data tables from ...

Automated Streak Detection for High Velocity Objects: Test with YSTAR-NEOPAT Images [PDF]
We developed an algorithm to efficiently detect streaks in survey images and made a performance test with YSTAR-NEOPAT images obtained by the 0.5m telescope stationed in South Africa. Fast moving objects whose apparent speeds exceed 10 arcsec/min are the

Feed-Forward Neural Network Denoising Applied to Goldstone Solar System Radar Images
The study of Near-Earth Asteroids (NEA) is crucial for human safety. Small hazardous asteroids with small radar cross sections are not easy to detect, track, and characterize due to the small signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the radar echo. This manuscript
