TNOs are Cool’’: A survey of the trans-neptunian region. IV. Size/albedo characterization of 15 scattered disk and detached objects observed with Herschel/PACS. Astron. Astrophys., forthcoming

Context. Physical characterization of Trans-Neptunian objects, a primitive population of the outer solar system, may provide con-straints on their formation and evolution. Aims. The goal of this work is to characterize a set of 15 scattered disk (SDOs) and detached objects, in terms of their size, albedo, and thermal properties. Methods. Thermal flux measurements obtained with the Herschel-PACS instrument at 70, 100 and 160 µm, and whenever applicable
