Abstract:
The phenomenon of a comet-asteroid transition presents the opportunity to study the comet reservoir in comparison to that from which asteroids are derived and to understand the evolution of comets. I discuss six significant areas which have impacted understanding of the comet-asteroid transition from recent years: new discoveries, discovery of dust and volatile comae at 2060 Chiron, observations of comet nuclei, observations of extinct-comet candidates, observations of dust trails associated with short period comets, and discovery of a dust tail on a prediscovery image of 4015 Wilson-Harringto

Abstract:
Abstract The Kuiper Belt objects (KBOs), the Centaurs, and the Jupiter-family comets (JFCs) form an evolutionary continuum of small outer solar system objects, and their study allows us to gain insight into the history and evolution of the solar system. Broadband photometry can be used to measure their phase curves, allowing a first-order probe into the surface properties of these objects, though limited telescope time makes measuring accurate phase curves difficult. We make use of serendipitous broadband photometry from the long-baseline, high-cadence Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert Sy

Abstract:
Abstract 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, this activity tends not to correlate with heliocentric distance, and the mechanism behind it is currently poorly understood. We utilize serendipitous observations from the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System, Zwicky Transient Facility, Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System, Dark Energy Survey, and Gaia in additio

Abstract:
The sensitivity of ALMA makes it possible to detect thermal mm/submm emission from small and/or distant solar system bodies at the sub-mJy level. While the measured fluxes are primarily sensitive to the objects’ diameters, deriving precise sizes is somewhat hampered by the uncertain effective emissivity at these wavelengths. Following recent work presenting ALMA data for four trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) with satellites, we report on ALMA 233 GHz (1.29 mm) flux measurements of four Centaurs (2002 GZ32, Bienor, Chiron, Chariklo) and two other TNOs (Huya and Makemake), sampling a range of size

Abstract:
Abstract By the end of 1996, six small bodies orbiting the Sun with semi major axes between those of Jupiter and Neptune became known as Centaur Objects. The first Centaur object discovered was (2060) Chiron. Initially classified as an asteroid with an unusual orbit, Chiron later was designated a comet, after it exhibited cometary activity. The subsequent discovery of other small objects with similar unusual orbital characteristics led to the identification of a new dynamical group of bodies in the solar system.
