  1. Thermal model fjtting NEOWISE data – Straightforward Cases Paul Pinchuk 1 , Nathan Myhrvold 2 , Jean-Luc Margot 1 1 UCLA Physics and Astronomy Department 2 Intellectual Ventures

  2. WISE/NEOWISE Myhrvold N. 2018 Icarus 303 9

  3. Data Filters • Photometric quality fmag = A, B, or C • • Artjfact fmag = 0; No saturated pixels Photometric • Signal to Noise Ratjo > 4 • PSF fjt reduced <= 2 • JPL Horizons positjons within 95% CI for adjusted sigma on RA, DEC Locatjon and confusion • Remove background object confusion cases • Remove asteroid conjunctjons Data reliability • A minimum of 3 datapoints per band in all four bands

  4. T otal Asteroids Remaining = 4688

  5. Error Scaling • Myhrvold N. 2018 Icarus 303 9

  7. Thermal Models Myhrvold N. 2018 Icarus 303 9

  8. Thermal Models Myhrvold N. 2018 Icarus 303 9

  9. Thermal Models • Myhrvold reparameterizatjon • • For all models - fjt by minimizing using scaled uncertaintjes Myhrvold N. 2018 Icarus 303 9

  10. Outlier Rejection • Iteratjve procedure • • Perform model fjt with all data • Data points with residuals greater than 3 are discarded • Repeat procedure with remaining data points untjl convergence • Eliminates additjonal asteroids • Future: additjon of light curve fjttjng
