Sorcha is an open-source Python survey simulator that forward-models LSST detection biases for arbitrary solar system small-body populations, with end-to-end validation against JPL Horizons.
A catalogue of absolute-magnitude colours, Barucci four-class taxonomies, and albedo-based diameter estimates for 144 TNOs and Centaurs from DES year six, plus weak colour-orbital correlations.
Torifune is an oblate, prograde-rotating Sq-type asteroid about 0.44 km across, with a rotation period of 5.0215 hours and no large-scale surface heterogeneity.
Leucus is a prograde, roughly 61 by 39 by 28 km convex body rotating every 445.683 hours, with a pole near ecliptic (208°, +77°) and a geometric albedo of 0.043.
A photometric survey of 15 near-Earth asteroids yields rotation periods, taxonomic classes, and candidate evidence that some kilometer-scale objects require cohesive strengths of 10^2-10^4 Pa to avoid disruption.
Reports asymmetric heliocentric activity slopes for 103P/Hartley 2 and exponential outburst decay plus flattening phase curves for Chiron from ATLAS, ZTF, and LCO photometry.
