We have calculated the figure of equilibrium of a rapidly rotating, differentiated body to determine the shape, structure, and composition of the dwarf planet Haumea. Previous studies of Haumea’s ...

A longitudinal, or a transverse, plane elastic wave is incident on a rigid triaxial ellipsoid. The zeroth-order and first-order low-frequency approximations are obtained explicitly at every point ...

The image system of singularities of an arbitrary exterior potential field within a triaxial ellipsoid is derived. It is found that the image system consists of a source and doublet distribution over ...

We use thermal radiometry and visible photometry to constrain the size, shape, and albedo of the large Kuiper belt object Haumea. The correlation between the visible and thermal photometry ...
