Disassociation energies for the finite density N-body problem
Daniel J. Scheeres
This paper considers the energy required for collections of finite density bodies to undergo escape under internal gravitational interactions alone. As the level of the system ener…
A satellite orbit drift in binary near-Earth asteroids (66391) 1999 KW4 and (88710) 2001 SL9 -- Indication of the BYORP effect
P. Scheirich, P. Pravec, P. Kušnirák +34
We obtained thorough photometric observations of two binary near-Earth asteroids (66391) Moshup = 1999 KW4 and (88710) 2001 SL9 taken from 2000 to 2019 and derived physical and dyn…
Observational Investigation of the 2013 Near-Earth Encounter by Asteroid (367943) Duende
Nicholas Moskovitz, Conor Benson, Daniel Scheeres +20
On 15 February 2013, the asteroid 367943 Duende (2012 DA14) experienced a near-Earth encounter at an altitude of 27,700 km or 4.2 Earth radii. We present here the results of an ext…
Doubly Synchronous Binary Asteroid Mass Parameter Observability
Alex B. Davis, Daniel J. Scheeres
The full two-body problem (F2BP) is often used to model binary asteroid systems, representing the bodies as two finite mass distributions whose dynamics are influenced by their mut…
Cohesive Regolith on Fast Rotating Asteroids
Paul Sánchez, Daniel J. Scheeres
The migration of cohesive regolith on the surface of an otherwise monolithic or strong asteroid is studied using theoretical and simulation models. The theory and simulations show…
Small Solar System Bodies as granular media
D. Hestroffer, P. Sánchez, L. Staron +12
Asteroids and other Small Solar System Bodies (SSSBs) are of high general and scientific interest in many aspects. The origin, formation, and evolution of our Solar System (and oth…
