Is water ice an efficient facilitator for dust coagulation?
Hiroshi Kimura, Koji Wada, Hiroshi Kobayashi +8
Beyond the snow line of protoplanetary discs and inside the dense core of molecular clouds, the temperature of gas is low enough for water vapour to condense into amorphous ices on…
The tensile strength of dust aggregates consisting of small elastic grains: Constraints on the size of condensates in protoplanetary disks
Hiroshi Kimura, Koji Wada, Fumi Yoshida +7
A consensus view on the formation of planetesimals is now exposed to a threat, since recent numerical studies on the mechanical properties of dust aggregates tend to dispute the co…
Near-infrared observations of active asteroid (3200) Phaethon reveal no evidence for hydration
Driss Takir, Theodore Kareta, Joshua P. Emery +5
Asteroid (3200) Phaethon is an active near-Earth asteroid and the parent body of the Geminid Meteor Shower. Because of its small perihelion distance, Phaethon's surface reaches tem…
