The Winchcombe Fireball -- that Lucky Survivor
Sarah McMullan, Denis Vida, Hadrien A. R. Devillepoix +34
On February 28, 2021, a fireball dropped kg of recovered CM2 carbonaceous chondrite meteorites in South-West England near the town of Winchcombe. We reconstruct the fireb…
Diversity of new Martian crater clusters informs meteoroid atmospheric interactions
T. Neidhart, E. K. Sansom, K. Miljković +3
We investigated 634 crater clusters on Mars detected between 2007 and 2021, which represent more than half of all impacts discovered in this period. Crater clusters form when meteo…
Effects of impact and target parameters on the results of a kinetic impactor: predictions for the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission
Angela M. Stickle, Mallory E. DeCoster, Christoph Burger +30
The Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft will impact into the asteroid Dimorphos on September 26, 2022 as a test of the kinetic impactor technique for planetary defen…
Complex crater formation by oblique impacts on the Earth and Moon
T. M. Davison, G. S. Collins
Almost all meteorite impacts occur at oblique incidence angles, but the effect of impact angle on crater size is not well understood, especially for large craters. To improve obliq…
Influence of the projectile geometry on the momentum transfer from a kinetic impactor and implications for the DART mission
S. D. Raducan, M. Jutzi, T. M. Davison +5
The DART spacecraft will impact Didymos's secondary, Dimorphos, at the end of 2022 and cause a change in the orbital period of the secondary. For simplicity, most previous numerica…
Ejecta distribution and momentum transfer from oblique impacts on asteroid surfaces
S. D. Raducan, T. M. Davison, G. S. Collins
NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission will impact its target asteroid, Dimorphos, at an oblique angle that will not be known prior to the impact. We computed iSALE…
