Adaptive optics and lightcurve data of asteroids: twenty shape models and information content analysis

Earth and Planetary Astrophysics 2017-11-29 v1

Abstract

We present shape models and volume estimates of twenty asteroids based on relative photometry and adaptive optics images. We discuss error estimation and the effects of myopic deconvolution on shape solutions. For further analysis of the information capacities of data sources, we also present and discuss ambiguity and uniqueness results for the reconstruction of nonconvex shapes from photometry.
