Talk:Haumea family

UZ117 and CB79
Schaller's talk Oct 13 ID'd UZ117 and CB79 as members, bringing the total to 8, but we only had 5--don't know what the sixth one is. kwami (talk) 21:53, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

UZ117 and CB79 have been confirmed as members of the family by both Pinilla-Alonso et al. 2008 and Schaller & Brown 2008

You need both, a neutral visible spectrum and a nearIR with deep water ice absorption bands.

As far as I know, the actual confirmed members are 8: Haumea, 1996 TO66, 1995 SM55, 2002 TX300, 2003 OP32, 2005 RR43, 2003 UZ117 and 2005 CB79 (and the particular case of Haumea's biggest satellite) (IcesAreCool (talk) 01:49, 14 June 2009 (UTC))

Graze and Merge
I've come across a recent paper explaining the characteristics of Haumea and its collision family via a type of collision referred to as 'graze and merge' wherein the the impactor looses enough energy in a initial oblique collision to be gravitationally captured after which it recollides and merges forming a rapidly spinning elongated object which spins of fragments to form the collisional family.

Haumeid?
I have not yet seen this term: could someone point me to where it has been used (naturally, outside Wikipedia)? Double sharp (talk) 13:18, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
