Terrestrial Planet Formation from Two Source Reservoirs
David Nesvorny, Alessandro Morbidelli, William F. Bottke +2
This work describes new dynamical simulations of terrestrial planet formation. The simulations started at the protoplanetary disk stage, when planetesimals formed and accreted into…
Size-Frequency Distribution of Terrestrial Leftover Planetesimals and S-complex Implanted Asteroids
Rogerio Deienno, Andre Izidoro, David Nesvorny +3
The isotopic composition of meteorites linked to S-complex asteroids has been used to suggest that these asteroids originated in the terrestrial planet's region, i.e., within 1.5 a…
A pre-flyby view on the origin of asteroid Donaldjohanson, a target of the NASA Lucy mission
Simone Marchi, David Vokrouhlický, David Nesvorný +3
The NASA Lucy mission is scheduled to fly-by the main belt asteroid (52246) Donaldjohanson on April 20, 2025. Donaldjohanson (DJ hereafter) is a member of the primitive (C-type cla…
Orbital and absolute magnitude distribution of Hilda population
David Vokrouhlický, David Nesvorný, Miroslav Brož +4
The Hilda population of asteroids is located in a large orbital zone of long-term stability associated with the Jupiter J3/2 mean motion resonance. They are a sister population of…
