On The Lunar Origin of Near-Earth Asteroid 2024 PT5
Theodore Kareta, Oscar Fuentes-Muñoz, Nicholas Moskovitz +2
The Near-Earth Asteroid (NEA) 2024 PT5 is on an Earth-like orbit which remained in Earth's immediate vicinity for several months at the end of 2024. PT5's orbit is challenging to p…
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.…
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…
The hazardous km-sized NEOs of the next thousands of years
Oscar Fuentes-Muñoz, Daniel J. Scheeres, Davide Farnocchia +1
The catalog of km-sized near-Earth objects (NEOs) is nearly complete. Typical impact monitoring analyses search for possible impacts over the next 100 years and none of the km-size…
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…
