TL;DR: In this article, an analysis of ground-based thermal IR observations of 1 Ceres and 2 Pallas has yielded a new value for the IR beaming parameter employed in the standard asteroid thermal emission model which is significantly lower than the previous one.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report the following results from a decade of infrared radiometry of Io: (1) the average global heat flow is more than approx. 2.5 W/sq.m, large warm (less than or equal to 200 K) volcanic regions dominate the global heat flows, smal high-temperature (greater than or = 300 K) 'hotspots' contribute little to the average heat flow, thermal anomalies on the leading hemisphere contribute about half of the heat flow and a substantial amount of heat is radiated during Io's night, high

TL;DR: The present version used new and improved asteroid orbital elements for 4679 numbered asteroids and 2632 additional asteroids for which at least two-opposition elements were available as of mid-1991 as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: Thermal models are used to derive radiometric albedos and diameters for 22 Aten, Apollo, and Amor asteroids, finding several of these asteroids appear to have surfaces of relatively high thermal inertia due to the exposure of bare rock or a coarse regolith.

TL;DR: In this paper, three parameters (U-V and v-x color indices and visual geometric albedo) were used to classify 357 asteroids into 11 taxonomic classes and all but one of these classes are analogous to those previously found using other classification schemes.
