Accretion of Ornamental Equatorial Ridges on Pan, Atlas and Daphnis
Alice C. Quillen, Fatima Zaidouni, Miki Nakajima +1
We explore scenarios for the accretion of ornamental ridges on Saturn's moons Pan, Atlas, and Daphnis from material in Saturn's rings. Accretion of complex shaped ridges from ring…
Scaling laws for the geometry of an impact-induced magma ocean
Miki Nakajima, Gregor J. Golabek, Kai Wünnemann +6
Here, we develop scaling laws for (1) the distribution of impact-induced heat within the mantle and (2) shape of the impact-induced melt based on more than 100 smoothed particle hy…
Ricochets on Asteroids: Experimental study of low velocity grazing impacts into granular media
Esteban Wright, Alice Quillen, Juiliana South +6
Spin off events and impacts can eject boulders from an asteroid surface and rubble pile asteroids can accumulate from debris following a collision between large asteroids. These pr…
