Discerning between different 'Oumuamua models by optical and infrared observations
Eirik Grude Flekkøy, Joachim Brodin, 2022. The Astrophysical Journal Letters.
Shows that combined optical and infrared observations of the next 'Oumuamua-like object could tell a fractal body from a solid or a thin sheet, because their thermal behaviour differs.
What it's used for here
What a future object's observations should include.
