The dynamical surface of Phobos: a morphodynamic atlas

Isabel Herreros, Sébastien Charnoz

Phobos evolves in a highly dynamical environment where surface-material motion is controlled by the combined effects of self-gravity, time-dependent Martian tides, and inertial for…

Tracking low-velocity ejecta from the DART impact on Dimorphos

Isabel Herreros, Sébastien Charnoz

The DART impact on Dimorphos produced a large population of low-velocity ejecta, likely containing most of the excavated mass, whose early fate remains poorly constrained. We inves…

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…

Successful Kinetic Impact into an Asteroid for Planetary Defense

R. Terik Daly, Carolyn M. Ernst, Olivier S. Barnouin +98

While no known asteroid poses a threat to Earth for at least the next century, the catalog of near-Earth asteroids is incomplete for objects whose impacts would produce regional de…

Ejecta from the DART-produced active asteroid Dimorphos

Jian-Yang Li, Masatoshi Hirabayashi, Tony L. Farnham +61

Some active asteroids have been proposed to be the result of impact events. Because active asteroids are generally discovered serendipitously only after their tail formation, the p…

After DART: Using the first full-scale test of a kinetic impactor to inform a future planetary defense mission

Thomas S. Statler, Sabina D. Raducan, Olivier S. Barnouin +38

NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) is the first full-scale test of an asteroid deflection technology. Results from the hypervelocity kinetic impact and Earth-based obse…
