Summary of the avaible thermal observations.

Year/Mon/Day Wavelength range [μm] Rh [AU] Δ [AU] α [°] Telescope Reference

2007/05/16 15.0, 24.0 1.414 0.992 +45.6 Akari Hasegawa et al. (2008)
2007/08/28 8.8(3 × ), 9.7(1 × ), 10.5(1 × ), 11.7(7 × ), 12.4(3 × ) 1.287 0.306 +22.3 Subaru Hasegawa et al. (2008)
2008/05/02 5.2–8.5, 7.4–14.2, 14.0–21.5, 19.5–38.0 1.202 0.416 +52.6° Spitzer Campins et al. (2009)

Notes. Rh is the helio-centric distance and Δ the distance between object and telescope. All observations were taken at positive phase angles α (Sun-object-telescope), i.e., leading the Sun, with a cold terminator for a retrograde rotating body.
