TL;DR: Using images and thermal data from NASA's Origins, Spectral Interpretation, Resource Identification, and Security-Regolith Explorer (OSIRIS-REx) spacecraft, this paper showed that asteroid (101955) Bennu's surface is globally rough, dense with boulders, and low in albedo.

TL;DR: The shape model indicates that near-Earth asteroid Bennu formed by reaccumulation and underwent past periods of fast spin, which led to its current shape, similar to other top-shaped asteroids.

Theodore Kareta,Jennifer E. Andrews,John Noonan,Walter M. Harris,Nathan Smith,Patrick O'Brien,Benjamin N. L. Sharkey,Vishnu Reddy,Alessondra Springmann,Cassandra Lejoly,Kathryn Volk,Al Conrad,Christian Veillet +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a Haser model to convert the integrated fluxes to production rates and found that 2I/Borisov is strongly in the (carbon chain) 'depleted' taxonomic group.

P/2019 LD2 (ATLAS): An Active Centaur in Imminent Transition to the Jupiter Family
Jordan K. Steckloff,Jordan K. Steckloff,Gal Sarid,Kathryn Volk,Theodore Kareta,Maria Womack,Walter M. Harris,Laura Woodney,Charles Schambeau +8 more
TL;DR: Sarid et al. as discussed by the authors conducted dynamical simulations to constrain its orbital history and resulting thermal environment over the past 3000 years and found that 2019 LD2 is currently in the vicinity of a dynamical "Gateway" that facilitates the majority of transitions from the Centaur population into the Jupiter Family of Comets (JFC population).
