# 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.
