VLT/MUSE Characterisation of Dimorphos Ejecta from the DART Impact
Brian P. Murphy, Cyrielle Opitom, Colin Snodgrass +8
We have observed the Didymos-Dimorphos binary system with the MUSE integral field unit spectrograph mounted at the Very Large Telescope (VLT) pre and post-DART impact, and captured…
Photometry of the Didymos system across the DART impact apparition
Nicholas Moskovitz, Cristina Thomas, Petr Pravec +78
On 26 September 2022, the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft impacted Dimorphos, the satellite of binary near-Earth asteroid (65803) Didymos. This demonstrated the…
Ejecta Evolution Following a Planned Impact into an Asteroid: The First Five Weeks
Theodore Kareta, Cristina Thomas, Jian-Yang Li +85
The impact of the DART spacecraft into Dimorphos, moon of the asteroid Didymos, changed Dimorphos' orbit substantially, largely from the ejection of material. We present results fr…
Orbital Period Change of Dimorphos Due to the DART Kinetic Impact
Cristina A. Thomas, Shantanu P. Naidu, Peter Scheirich +46
The Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft successfully performed the first test of a kinetic impactor for asteroid deflection by impacting Dimorphos, the secondary of…
