VizieR Online Data Catalog: Trojan asteroids in the Kepler campaign 6 field (Ryan+, 2017)
Abstract
To obtain high-precision (i.e., differential micro-magnitude) photometric measurements of Trojan asteroids, we utilized the Kepler spacecraft during Campaign 6 of the K2 Mission (Howell et al. 2014, Cat. IV/34). The Kepler spacecraft imager has a 110 square degree Field Of View (FOV) with 4 arcsec pixels. The Kepler FOV is covered by 21 camera modules, each of which is comprised of two CCDs, wherein each CCD is read from two amplifiers which are labelled as Kepler channels. During Campaign 6 the center of the Kepler FOV was centered at R.A. (J2000)=13:39:28 and decl. (J2000)=-11:17:43 which overlapped with the Trojan L4 cloud. This field was observed from 2015 July 14 to September 30. A list of observing circumstances for all of the observed Trojan asteroids over the ~80 day campaign is given in Table1.
