A Contact Binary Satellite of the Asteroid (152830) Dinkinesh

Harold F. Levison, Simone Marchi, Keith S. Noll +3

Asteroids with diameters less than about 5 km have complex histories because they are small enough for radiative torques, YORP, to be a notable factor in their evolution. (152830)…

Dynamical phenomena in the Martian atmosphere through Mars Express imaging

A. Sánchez-Lavega, T. del Río-Gaztelurrutia, A. Spiga +5

This review describes the dynamic phenomena in the atmosphere of Mars that are visible in images taken in the visual range through cloud formation and dust lifting. We describe the…

Diurnal ejection of boulder clusters on comet 67P lasting beyond 3 AU

Xian Shi, Xuanyu Hu, Jessica Agarwal +6

Ejection of large boulder-like debris is a vigorous form of cometary activity that is unlikely induced by water ice out-gassing alone but rather associated with the sublimation of…

Ejecta from the DART-produced active asteroid Dimorphos

Jian-Yang Li, Masatoshi Hirabayashi, Tony L. Farnham +61

Some active asteroids have been proposed to be the result of impact events. Because active asteroids are generally discovered serendipitously only after their tail formation, the p…
