Size, Shape, and Geometric Albedo of Dwarf Planet Quaoar's Largest Satellite Weywot

The small satellites of dwarf-planet size worlds in trans-Neptunian space are thought to be produced through giant impacts, and are typically observed to have bright water-ice-dominated surfaces. Here we focus on Quaoar's small primary satellite, Weywot. We build on previous work by re-analyzing the June 2023 stellar o...
