Radar Observations and the Shape of Near-Earth Asteroid 2008 EV5
Michael W. Busch, Steven J. Ostro, Lance A. M. Benner +10
We observed the near-Earth asteroid 2008 EV5 with the Arecibo and Goldstone planetary radars and the Very Long Baseline Array during December 2008. EV5 rotates retrograde and its o…
Tidal Evolution of Close Binary Asteroid Systems
Patrick A. Taylor, Jean-Luc Margot
We provide a generalized discussion of tidal evolution to arbitrary order in the expansion of the gravitational potential between two spherical bodies of any mass ratio. To accurat…
Binary Asteroid Systems: Tidal End States and Estimates of Material Properties
Patrick A. Taylor, Jean-Luc Margot
The locations of the fully despun, double synchronous end states of tidal evolution are derived for spherical components. With the exception of nearly equal-mass binaries, binary a…
