Astronomical studies of solar system bodies 2060 Chiron and 1 Ceres
… Chiron and rotationally resolved spectra of 1 Ceres. On 29 November 2011 UT, 2060 Chiron occulted a 14-mag star; data were successfully obtained at the 3-m IRTF on Mauna Kea and 2-m Faulkes North Telescope at Haleakala. The IRTF lightcurve shows a solid-body detection of Chiron's nucleus with a …

Rangeland condition in the Ceres Karoo: the importance of long-term studies
… the period between 1971 and 2002 throughout the Ceres Karoo. Correspondence analysis (CA) ordinations were used to show plant community changes from year to year at two sites: one that has been rested for many decades, and one that has used the Group Camp system since 1970. CA ordinations were …

Geophysical investigation of Vesta, Ceres and the Moon using gravity and topography data
… System bodies: asteroid Vesta, dwarf planet Ceres and the Earth's Moon. Using the data from the Dawn spacecraft, we find that once hot and hydrostatic, Vesta is no longer either. It was despun by two giant collisions. We use the Dawn gravity/topography data along with meteoritic data to …
