Abstract

The nine-channel Mini-Mega-TORTORA (MMT-9) optical wide-field monitoring system with high temporal resolution system is in operation since June 2014. The system has 0.1 s temporal resolution and effective detection limit around 10 mag (calibrated to V filter) for fast-moving objects on this timescale. In addition to its primary scientific operation, the system detects 200-500 tracks of satellites every night, both on low-altitude and high ellipticity orbits. Using these data we created and support the public database of photometric characteristics for these satellites, available online.
