The Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) at Vera C. Rubin Observatory is planned to begin in the Fall of 2025. The LSST survey cadence has been designed via a community-driven process regulated by the Survey Cadence Optimization Committee (SCOC), w

Centaurs are small Solar System objects on chaotic orbits in the giant planet region, forming an evolutionary continuum with the Kuiper belt objects and Jupiter-family comets. Some Centaurs are known to exhibit cometary activity, though unlike comets

The weird and the wonderful in our Solar System: Searching for serendipity in the Legacy Survey of Space and Time

Autor: Rogers, Brian, Lintott, Chris J., Croft, Steve, Schwamb, Megan E., Davenport, James R. A.

We present a novel method for anomaly detection in Solar System object data, in preparation for the Legacy Survey of Space and Time. We train a deep autoencoder for anomaly detection and use the learned latent space to search for other interesting ob

OSSOS. V. Diffusion in the Orbit of a High-perihelion Distant Solar System Object

Autor: Bannister, Michele T., Shankman, Cory, Volk, Kathryn, Chen, Ying-Tung, Kaib, Nathan, Gladman, Brett J., Jakubik, Marian, Kavelaars, J. J., Fraser, Wesley C., Schwamb, Megan E., Petit, Jean-Marc, Wang, Shiang-Yu, Gwyn, Stephen D. J., Alexandersen, Mike, Pike, Rosemary E.

We report the discovery of the minor planet 2013 SY99 on an exceptionally distant, highly eccentric orbit. With a perihelion of 50.0. au, 2013 SY99' s orbit has a semimajor axis of 730 +/- 40. au, the largest known for a high-perihelion trans-Neptuni

We report the discovery, tracking, and detection circumstances for 85 trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) from the first 42 deg(2) of the Outer Solar System Origins Survey. This ongoing r-band solar system survey uses the 0.9 deg(2) field of view MegaPrim
