Masses and Densities of Dwarf Planet Satellites Measured with ALMA
We have used the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array to measure precise absolute astrometric positions and detect the astrometric wobble of dwarf planet Orcus and its satellite Vanth over a complete orbit. We also place upper limits to the astrometric wobble induced by Dysnomia on dwarf pla...
