Example phase-curve fitting for a single TNO 2007 RW10 across different filters. Left panels: observed reduced magnitudes vs. phase angle for different surveys (markers indicate survey origin), with the median linear fit overplotted with a solid line. Right panels: 2D histogram of 2000 Monte Carlo iterations of the linear fit, showing the distribution of phase slope (β) vs. absolute magnitude (H).
