Let’s check the New Astronomy issue for October (vol. 119). Yes, they’re up to October already:
Wang, S. Yang, Y. Yuan, H. et al. CCD Photometric studies of two Primitive C-type main-belt asteroids: (51) Nemausa and (52) Europa 102391 .2025.102391
Vaduvescu, O. Stanescu, M. Popescu, M. et al. Few EURONEAR NEA mini-surveys observed with the INT, KASI and T80S telescopes during the ParaSOL synthetic tracking… 102410 .2025.102410
Always good to observe C-type bodies. We’d like to put Ryugu and Bennu in proper context, and vice versa- studying these objects in the light of what we know via Ryugu and Bennu. Plus, you never know which C-type “asteroids” turn out to be extinct/dormant comets, dark comets, etc.
And re: observing small bodies in general. ParaSOL is a Romanian initiative to push the limits of asteroid detection and follow-up, in the greater context of Europe-wide asteroid efforts. Using existing “hardware,” the authors attempt synthetic tracking: stacking images, with no asteroid found yet. Instead, all plausible stacking combinations are tried, in the hopes that a faint asteroid will appear out of the pixel noise. As you can imagine, this is compute-intensive. But computers are now cheaper than telescopes, so… stack away.
