Impact disruption of Bjurböle porous chondritic projectile

Tomas Kohout, Maurizio Pajola, Assi-Johanna Soini +10

The ~200 m/s impact of a single 400-kg Bjurböle L/LL ordinary chondrite meteorite onto sea ice resulted in the catastrophic disruption of the projectile. This resulted in a signifi…

Macro-scale roughness reveals the complex history of asteroids Didymos and Dimorphos

Jean-Baptiste Vincent, Erik Asphaug, Olivier Barnouin +22

Morphological mapping is a fundamental step in studying the processes that shaped an asteroid surface. Yet, it is challenging and often requires multiple independent assessments by…

Direct -body simulations of satellite formation around small asteroids: insights from DART's encounter with the Didymos system

Harrison F. Agrusa, Yun Zhang, Derek C. Richardson +18

We explore binary asteroid formation by spin-up and rotational disruption considering the NASA DART mission's encounter with the Didymos-Dimorphos binary, which was the first small…

Ejecta from the DART-produced active asteroid Dimorphos

Jian-Yang Li, Masatoshi Hirabayashi, Tony L. Farnham +61

Some active asteroids have been proposed to be the result of impact events. Because active asteroids are generally discovered serendipitously only after their tail formation, the p…
