The Influence of Central Body Tides on Catastrophic Disruptions of Close-in Planetary Satellites
Harrison Agrusa, Patrick Michel
We model the outcomes of catastrophic disruptions on small, gravity-dominated natural satellites, accounting for the tidal potential of the central body, which is neglected in clas…
Satellite formation around the largest asteroids
Kevin J. Walsh, Ronald-Louis Ballouz, Harrison F. Agrusa +3
Satellites around large asteroids are preferentially found among those with the most rapid rotation and elongated shape. The taxonomic statistics are similarly skewed; in total, 13…
Confined tumbling state as the origin of the excess of slowly rotating asteroids
Wen-Han Zhou, Patrick Michel, Marco Delbo +4
The rotational distribution of asteroids as a function of their size is used {as a diagnostic of} their physical properties and evolution. Recent photometric surveys from the Gaia…
