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…
BYORP and Dissipation in Binary Asteroids: Lessons from DART
Matija Ćuk, Harrison Agrusa, Rachel H. Cueva +10
The Near-Earth binary asteroid Didymos was the target of a planetary defense demonstration mission DART in September 2022. The smaller binary component, Dimorphos, was impacted by…
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…
