Very weak carbonaceous asteroid simulants I: mechanical properties and response to hypervelocity impacts

Chrysa Avdellidou, Alice DiDonna, Cody Schultz +6

The two on-going sample return space missions, Hayabusa2 and OSIRIS-REx are going to return to Earth asteroid regolith from the carbonaceous near-Earth asteroids Ryugu and Bennu. T…

Survival of the impactor during hypervelocity collisions II: An analogue for high porosity targets

Chrysa Avdellidou, Mark C. Price, Marco Delbo +1

We investigated how a target's porosity affects the outcome of a collision, with respect to the impactor's fate. Laboratory impact experiments using peridot projectiles were perfor…

Survival of the impactor during hypervelocity collisions I: An analogue for low porosity targets

C. Avdellidou, M. C. Price, M. Delbo +2

Recent observations of asteroidal surfaces indicate the presence of materials that do not match the bulk lithology of the body. A possible explanation for the presence of these exo…

Analytical scanning and transmission electron microscopy of laboratory impacts on Stardust aluminum foils: interpreting impact crater morphology and the composition of impact residues

A. T. Kearsley, G. A. Graham, M. J. Burchell +8

The known encounter velocity (6.1kms-1) and particle incidence angle (perpendicular) between the Stardust spacecraft and the dust emanating from the nucleus of comet Wild 2 fall wi…
