Hera Orbit Determination Covariance Analysis of Didymos Binary Asteroid with the Full Two-Body Problem
Edoardo Gramigna, Riccardo Lasagni Manghi, Marco Zannoni +7
Standard planetary radio science analyses may be inadequate for accurately interpreting data from the Hera mission at the Didymos system due to the anticipated challenge posed by t…
The Dynamical State of the Didymos System Before and After the DART Impact
Derek C. Richardson, Harrison F. Agrusa, Brent Barbee +50
NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft impacted Dimorphos, the natural satellite of (65803) Didymos, on 2022 September 26, as a first successful test of kinetic…
An Earth Encounter As the Cause of Chaotic Dynamics in Binary Asteroid (35107) 1991VH
Alex J Meyer, Oscar Fuentes-Muñoz, Ioannis Gkolias +4
Among binary asteroids, (35107) 1991VH stands out as unique given the likely chaotic rotation within its secondary component. The source of this excited dynamical state is unknown.…
Apsidal Precession in Binary Asteroids
Alex J Meyer, Daniel J Scheeres
While the secondary in a binary asteroid plays an important role in the precession of the mutual orbit, this role has not been thoroughly studied. Given the complex spin-orbit coup…
Dimorphos orbit determination from mutual events photometry
Peter Scheirich, Petr Pravec, Alex J. Meyer +6
The NASA Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft successfully impacted the Didymos-Dimorphos binary asteroid system on 2022 September 26 UTC. We provide an update to its…
The Strength and Shapes of Contact Binary Objectcts
Alex J Meyer, Daniel J Scheeres
While contact binary objects are common in the solar system, their formation mechanism is unclear. In this work we examine several contact binaries and calculate the necessary stre…
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…
The Perturbed Full Two-Body Problem: Application to Post-DART Didymos
Alex J. Meyer, Harrison F. Agrusa, Derek C. Richardson +19
With the successful impact of the NASA DART spacecraft in the Didymos-Dimorphos binary asteroid system, we provide an initial analysis of the post-impact perturbed binary asteroid…
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…
Energy Dissipation in Synchronous Binary Asteroids
Alex J. Meyer, Daniel J. Scheeres, Harrison F. Agrusa +5
Synchronous binary asteroids can experience libration about their tidally-locked equilibrium, which will result in energy dissipation. This is an important topic to the Asteroid Im…
Rotation-induced granular motion on the secondary component of binary asteroids: Application to the DART impact on Dimorphos
Harrison Agrusa, Ronald Ballouz, Alex J. Meyer +6
NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission will kinetically impact Dimorphos, the secondary component of the Didymos binary asteroid system, which will excite Dimorphos…
Predictions for the Dynamical States of the Didymos System before and after the Planned DART Impact
Derek C. Richardson, Harrison F. Agrusa, Brent Barbee +33
NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft is planned to impact the natural satellite of (65803) Didymos, Dimorphos, around 23:14 UTC on 26 September 2022, causing a…
Semi-analytical near-Earth objects propagation: the orbit history of (35107) 1991 VH and (175706) 1996 FG3
Oscar Fuentes-Muñoz, Alex J. Meyer, Daniel J. Scheeres
The propagation of small bodies in the Solar system is driven by the combination of planetary encounters that cause abrupt changes in their orbits and secular long-term perturbatio…
TEDGE-Caching: Transformer-based Edge Caching Towards 6G Networks
Zohreh Hajiakhondi Meybodi, Arash Mohammadi, Elahe Rahimian +3
As a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for telecommunication for remote learning/working and telemedicine has significantly increased. Mobile Edge Caching (MEC) in t…
