Observed tidal evolution of Kleopatra's outer satellite
M. Brož, J. Ďurech, B. Carry +8
The orbit of the outer satellite Alexhelios of (216) Kleopatra is already constrained by adaptive-optics astrometry, obtained with the VLT/SPHERE instrument. However, there is also…
Rotation acceleration of asteroids (10115) 1992 SK, (1685) Toro, and (1620) Geographos due to the YORP effect
J. Durech, D. Vokrouhlicky, P. Pravec +28
The rotation state of small asteroids is affected by the Yarkovsky-O'Keefe-Radzievskii-Paddack (YORP) effect, which is a net torque caused by solar radiation directly reflected and…
(216) Kleopatra, a low density critically rotating M-type asteroid
F. Marchis, L. Jorda, P. Vernazza +36
Context. The recent estimates of the 3D shape of the M/Xe-type triple asteroid system (216) Kleopatra indicated a density of 5 g.cm. Such a high density implies a high metal…
(208) Lacrimosa: A case that missed the Slivan state?
D. Vokrouhlický, J. Ďurech, J. Hanuš +3
The largest asteroids in the Koronis family (sizes km) have very peculiar rotation state properties, with the retrograde- and prograde-rotating objects being distinctly d…
Evidence for differentiation of the most primitive small bodies
B. Carry, P. Vernazza, F. Vachier +40
Dynamical models of Solar System evolution have suggested that P-/D-type volatile-rich asteroids formed in the outer Solar System and may be genetically related to the Jupiter Troj…
