The cumulation of debris clouds around a fast-rotating asteroid

Chenyang Huang, Yang Yu, Zhijun Song +3

The rotational mass loss has been realized to be a prevalent mechanism to produce low-speed debris near the asteroid, and the size composition of the asteroid's surface regolith ha…

The common trend of saltation particles on the surface of fast-rotating asteroids

Zhijun Song, Yang Yu, Bin Cheng +2

An asteroid spun up to its critical limit has unique surface mechanical properties that its gravity and the centrifugal force largely balance, creating a relaxation environment whe…
