Dynamic Trajectory Analysis of Meteoroids Showing Minimal Deceleration
Thomas Stevenson, Ellie Sansom, Hadrien Devillepoix +8
Meteoroids decelerate and ablate as they descend through the atmosphere, however a portion of instrumentally observed meteors show little measurable deceleration and remain poorly…
A Cloud-Based Tool for Meteorite Recovery Using Drones and Machine Learning
Seamus L. Anderson, Hadrien A. R. Devillepoix, Lewis Lakerink +30
We present a cloud-based tool that uses drones and machine learning to help recover instrumentally observed meteorite falls. We showcase a collection of improvements made upon prev…
A Near-Earth Object Model Calibrated to Earth Impactors
Sophie E. Deam, Hadrien A. R. Devillepoix, David Nesvorný +16
The population of Earth-impacting meteoroids and its size-dependent orbital elements are key to understanding the origin of meteorites and informing on planetary defence efforts. O…
Exploring Seismic Signal Detection and Source Identification of Atmospheric Entries: The Hayabusa2 Sample Return Capsule as a Benchmark
Iona Clemente, Eleanor K. Sansom, Hadrien A. R. Devillepoix +4
This exploratory study investigates whether seismic signals can be used to infer fragmentation during a fireball event. Re-entry objects, particularly sample return capsules (SRCs)…
Perihelion history and atmospheric survival as primary drivers of the Earth`s meteorite record
Patrick M. Shober, Hadrien A. R. Devillepoix, Jeremie Vaubaillon +7
Models predict that more than half of all impacting meteoroids should be carbonaceous, reflecting the abundance of carbon-rich asteroids in the main belt and near-Earth space. Yet…
