Historical Surveys to Rubin First Look: Absolute Colors of Trans-Neptunian Objects

The Planetary Science Journal
We present a comprehensive photometric study of trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) by combining data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, the Colours of the Outer Solar System Origins Survey, the Dark Energy Survey, and the recent Rubin First Look (RFL) data ...

The Surfaces of Small to Midsize Plutinos: Evidence of an Association between Inclination and Surface Type

The Planetary Science Journal
Being one of the most populated mean motion resonances (MMRs) with Neptune and lying close to the inner boundary of the present-day cold classical disk, observations of the orbital and surface class distributions of the plutinos in the 3:2 MMR provide ...

Nitrogen-bearing Species on Trans-Neptunian Objects Revealed by JWST/DiSCo-TNOs

The Astrophysical Journal
C≡N-bearing species are valuable tracers of nitrogen chemistry in the solar system. Ranging from volatile compounds like HCN and CH _3 CN in cometary comae to refractory CN-bearing organics in some micrometeorites and interplanetary dust particles, these

Search for cometary activity in three Centaurs [(60558) Echeclus, 2000 FZ53 and 2000 GM137] and two trans-Neptunian objects [(29981) 1999 TD10 and (28978) Ixion]

, 2007
We have searched for evidence of a dust coma around three Centaurs [(60558) Echeclus (or 174P/Echeclus), 2000 FZ53 and 2000 GM137] and two trans-Neptunian objects [(28978) Ixion and (29981) 1999 TD10]. Despite the recent discovery of a coma around (60558)

Can Neptune’s Distant Mean Motion Resonances Constrain Undiscovered Planets in the Solar System? Lessons from a Case Study of the 9:1 Resonance

The Planetary Science Journal
Recent observational surveys of the outer solar system provide evidence that Neptune's distant n :1 mean motion resonances may harbor relatively large reservoirs of trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs). In particular, the discovery of two securely classified 9:

Taxonomy and densities of Trans-Neptunian Objects

, 2010
A Large Programme at ESO has been devoted to the investigation of Centaurs and Trans-Neptunian Objects. In this framework the photometric colors and the light curves of selected targets have been acquired. Here we present and discuss all the results obtained from the photometric technique.
