Understanding and Mitigating Plume Effects During Powered Descents on the Moon and Mars
Ryan N. Watkins, Philip T. Metzger, Manish Mehta +10
This 2020 Decadal Survey White Paper reviews what is known about lunar and martian lander Plume Surface Interactions (PSI) during powered descent. This includes an overview of the…
Multi-Particle Collisions in Microgravity: Coefficient of Restitution and Sticking Threshold for Systems of Mm-Sized Particles
J. Brisset, T. Miletich, J. Metzger +3
The current model of planet formation lacks a good understanding of the growth of dust particles inside the protoplanetary disk beyond mm sizes. In order to investigate the low-vel…
Dissipation and plastic deformation in collisions between metallic nanoparticles
William C. Tucker, Adrienne R. Dove, Patrick K. Schelling
Collisions between amorphous Fe nanoparticles were studied using molecular-dynamics simulation. For head-on collisions of nanoparticles with radii 1.4 nm, 5.2 nm, and $…
Regolith behavior under asteroid-level gravity conditions: low-velocity impact experiments
Julie Brisset, Joshua E. Colwell, Adrienne Dove +3
The dusty regolith covering the surfaces of asteroids and planetary satellites differs in size, shape, and composition from terrestrial soil particles and is subject to very differ…
NanoRocks: Design and Performance of an Experiment Studying Planet Formation on the International Space Station
J. Brisset, J. Colwell, A. Dove +1
In an effort to better understand the early stages of planet formation, we have developed a 1.5U payload that flew on the International Space Station (ISS) in the NanoRacks NanoLab…
