The surface sensitivity of rubble-pile asteroids during a distant planetary encounter: Influence of asteroid shape elongation
Yaeji Kim, Masatoshi Hirabayashi, Richard P Binzel +3
We numerically investigate how an asteroid's elongation controls the sensitivity of its surface to tidal effects during a distant planetary encounter beyond the Roche limit. We ana…
Evolution of an asteroid family under YORP, Yarkovsky and collisions
Francesco Marzari, Alessandro Rossi, Oleksiy Golubov +1
Any population of asteroids, like asteroid families, will disperse in semi-major axis due to the Yarkovsky effect. The amount of drift is modulated by the asteroid spin state evolu…
King-Hele orbit theory for periodic orbit and attitude variations
Vishal Ray, Daniel J. Scheeres
The analytical theory of satellite orbits in an atmosphere developed by King-Hele remains widely in use for satellite mission design because of its accurate approximation to numeri…
Spin-driven evolution of asteroids' top-shapes at fast and slow spins seen from (101955) Bennu and (162173) Ryugu
Masatoshi Hirabayashi, Ryota Nakano, Eri Tatsumi +14
Proximity observations by OSIRIS-REx and Hayabusa2 provided clues on the shape evolution processes of the target asteroids, (101955) Bennu and (162173) Ryugu. Their oblate shapes w…
Post-main-sequence debris from rotation-induced YORP break-up of small bodies II: multiple fissions, internal strengths and binary production
Dimitri Veras, Daniel J. Scheeres
Over one quarter of white dwarfs contain observable metallic debris from the breakup of exo-asteroids. Understanding the physical and orbital history of this debris would enable us…
