Physical Considerations for an Intercept Mission to a 1I/'Oumuamua-Like Interstellar Object
Amir Siraj, Abraham Loeb, Amaya Moro-Martín et al., 2023. Journal of Astronomical Instrumentation.
Estimates that 0.38 to 84 'Oumuamua-like objects will be found by Rubin in ten years (95 per cent range) and works out the rendezvous distance needed to resolve one. JAI 12, 2340001.
What it's used for here
The expected detection rate and imaging requirements for a future intercept.
