Physical properties of asteroid Dimorphos as derived from the DART impact
S. D. Raducan, M. Jutzi, A. F. Cheng +39
On September 26, 2022, NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission successfully impacted Dimorphos, the natural satellite of the binary near-Earth asteroid (65803) Didym…
Momentum Transfer from the DART Mission Kinetic Impact on Asteroid Dimorphos
Andrew F. Cheng, Harrison F. Agrusa, Brent W. Barbee +66
The NASA Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission performed a kinetic impact on asteroid Dimorphos, the satellite of the binary asteroid (65803) Didymos, at 23:14 UTC on Sep…
Insight into the Distribution of High-pressure Shock Metamorphism in Rubble-pile Asteroids
Nicole Güldemeister, Juulia-Gabrielle Moreau, Tomas Kohout +2
Shock metamorphism in ordinary chondrites allows for reconstructing impact events between asteroids in the main asteroid belt. Shock-darkening of ordinary chondrites occurs at the…
Are the Moon's nearside-farside asymmetries the result of a giant impact?
Meng-Hua Zhu, Kai Wunnemann, Ross W. K. Potter +2
The Moon exhibits striking geological asymmetries in elevation, crustal thickness, and composition between its nearside and farside. Although several scenarios have been proposed t…
Reconstructing the late accretion history of the Moon
Meng-Hua Zhu, Natalia Artemieva, Alessandro Morbidelli +3
The importance of highly siderophile elements (HSEs) to track planetary late accretion has long been recognized. However, the precise nature of the Moon's accretional history remai…
Scaling laws for the geometry of an impact-induced magma ocean
Miki Nakajima, Gregor J. Golabek, Kai Wünnemann +6
Here, we develop scaling laws for (1) the distribution of impact-induced heat within the mantle and (2) shape of the impact-induced melt based on more than 100 smoothed particle hy…
Shock-darkening in ordinary chondrites: determination of the pressure-temperature conditions by shock physics mesoscale modeling
J. Moreau, T. Kohout, K. Wünnemann
We determined the shock-darkening pressure range in ordinary chondrites using the iSALE shock physics code. We simulated planar shock waves on a mesoscale in a sample layer at diff…
Earth-like Habitats in Planetary Systems
Jörg Fritz, Bertram Bitsch, Ekkehard Kührt +8
Understanding the concept of habitability is related to an evolutionary knowledge of the particular planet-in-question. Additional indications so-called "systemic aspects" of the p…
