Physical Analysis of Bennu Samples Reveals Regolith Production by Collisional Disruption on Near-Earth Asteroids

R. -L. Ballouz, A. J. Ryan, R. J. Macke +25

Owing to the extremely low gravity of small near-Earth asteroids (NEAs), it has been assumed that impact-generated rock fragments escape into space and thus do not contribute to th…

Most High-density Exoplanets Are Unlikely to Be Remnant Giant-planet Cores

Zifan Lin, Saverio Cambioni, Sara Seager

Some exoplanets have much higher densities than expected from stellar abundances of planet-forming elements. There are two theories - metal-rich formation hypothesis and naked core…

Surface properties of the Kalliope-Linus system from ALMA and VLA data

Katherine de Kleer, Saverio Cambioni, Bryan Butler +1

The abundance and distribution of metal in asteroid surfaces can be constrained from thermal emission measurements at radio wavelengths, informing our understanding of planetesimal…

Can metal-rich worlds form by giant impacts?

Saverio Cambioni, Benjamin P. Weiss, Erik Asphaug +5

Planets and stars are expected to be compositionally linked because they accrete from the same material reservoir. However, astronomical observations revealed the existence of exop…

Estimate of water and hydroxyl abundance on asteroid (16) Psyche from JWST data

Stephanie G. Jarmak, Tracy M. Becker, Charles E. Woodward +10

Our understanding of Solar System evolution is closely tied to interpretations of asteroid composition, particularly the M-class asteroids. These asteroids were initially thought t…

The Heterogeneous Surface of Asteroid (16) Psyche

Saverio Cambioni, Katherine de Kleer, Michael Shepard

Main-belt asteroid (16) Psyche is the largest M-type asteroid, a class of object classically thought to be the metal cores of differentiated planetesimals and the parent bodies of…
