New versus past silica crush curve experiments: application to Dimorphos benchmarking impact simulations
Uri Malamud, Christoph M. Schafer, Irina Luciana San Sebastian +7
Crush curves are of fundamental importance to numerical modeling of small and porous astrophysical bodies. The empirical literature often measures them for silica grains, and diffe…
Metal-silicate mixing in planetesimal collisions
Kang Shuai, Christoph M. Schäfer, Christoph Burger +1
Impacts between differentiated planetesimals are ubiquitous in protoplanetary discs and may mix materials from the core, mantle, and crust of planetesimals, thus forming stony-iron…
Fragmentation of colliding planetesimals with water content
Thomas I. Maindl, Rudolf Dvorak, Christoph Schäfer +1
We investigate the outcome of collisions of Ceres-sized planetesimals composed of a rocky core and a shell of water ice. These collisions are not only relevant for explaining the f…
