2005 JE46 Planning


Background


2005 JE46 was discovered by LINEAR on May 10, 2005.  It will approach within 0.036 AU 
(14 lunar distances) on November 8.  Its physical properties are unknown, but its 
absolute magnitude of 18.0 suggests a diameter within a factor of two of 0.8 km.

Due to the proximity of its approach and its size, 2005 JE46 will be a strong radar 
target at Goldstone.  The view periods overlap most of the time already scheduled for
observations of asteroid 1862 Apollo, so we intend to split the time between the two
asteroids.  If the echoes from 2005 JE46 are significantly stronger than those from 
Apollo, as we expect, then we will devote most of the time to observing 2005 JE46.

2005 JE46 has been classified as a "Potentially Hazardous Asteroid" by the International
Astronomical Union's Minor Planet Center.
Goldstone observations are scheduled on November 2, 6, 7, and 10.
Observations are not scheduled at Arecibo due to conflicts with other projects.

Setups

CW Setup

For the final track, let's start with 10 usec ranging using following setup:

127 x 64 10-usec single sample
------------------------------
baud            10 usec
code            127
gates           127
FFT             64
ncoh            2
bandwidth       394 Hz   
resolution      6.15 Hz
TXOFF           +60 Hz -> echo will be centered at +9.75 bins or in bin 32+10 = 42

Then we'll go to 1 usec and finish with 1/8 usec imaging.  We aren't planning to do
any CW observations of 2005 JE46 on the final track.
