On the oldest asteroid families in the main belt
V. Carruba, D. Nesvorný, S. Aljbaae +2
Asteroid families are groups of minor bodies produced by high-velocity collisions. After the initial dispersions of the parent bodies fragments, their orbits evolve because of seve…
Footprints of a possible Ceres asteroid paleo-family
V. Carruba, D. Nesvorný, S. Marchi +1
Ceres is the largest and most massive body in the asteroid main belt. Observational data from the Dawn spacecraft reveal the presence of at least two impact craters about 280~km in…
Characterizing the original ejection velocity field of the Koronis family
Valerio Carruba, David Nesvorný, Safwan Aljbaae
An asteroid family forms as a result of a collision between an impactor and a parent body. The fragments with ejection speeds higher than the escape velocity from the parent body c…
