Simulation of the Dual-Frequency Radar Image of Asteroid 2016 HO3 and Implication for Tianwen-2 Mission

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
In China's Tianwen-2 mission, a dual-frequency radar will be carried out to detect the asteroid 2016 HO3. The dual-frequency radar can acquire the information of the asteroid's surface and internal structure. There are few studies about the

Images from the surface of asteroid Ryugu show rocks similar to carbonaceous chondrite meteorites

open access: yesScience, 2019
Landing on the surface of Ryugu In October 2018, the Hayabusa2 spacecraft dropped the Mobile Asteroid Surface Scout (MASCOT) lander onto the surface of the asteroid (162173) Ryugu. Jaumann et al.

Seismic Disturbance, Productivity and Depth Shape Hadal Benthic Habitats and Biodiversity in the Japan, Ryukyu and Izu‐Ogasawara Trenches (Northwest Pacific Ocean)

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim This study characterises benthic habitats and associated biodiversity in three Japanese subduction trenches, and explores the effects of trench‐specific differences in large‐scale seismic events, disturbance and productivity regimes on habitat structure and assemblage composition.

Collisional Formation and Modeling of Asteroid Families

open access: yes, 2015
In the last decade, thanks to the development of sophisticated numerical codes, major breakthroughs have been achieved in our understanding of the formation of asteroid families by catastrophic disruption of large parent bodies.

Expelled by the Antarctic ice: Evolutionary history of the tribe Cunonieae (Cunoniaceae)

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
Multiple fossil calibration points reveal recent radiations and biogeographical history of the Cunonieae tribe. The most densely sampled phylogeny allowed to infer Antarctica and Patagonia as areas of origin, confirming the reestablishment of Pterophylla and revealing the northward movement of Weinmannia into the tropical Andes. Conflicting plastid and

Reconstructing the size distribution of the primordial Main Belt

open access: yes, 2017
In this work we aim to constrain the slope of the size distribution of main-belt asteroids, at their primordial state. To do so we turn out attention to the part of the main asteroid belt between 2.82 and 2.96~AU, the so-called "pristine zone", which has

A statistical investigation into relationships between the IIE irons and the ordinary, F and “HH” chondrites

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract It has been proposed that IIE iron meteorites formed through impact processes on a parent body that was composed of either the H chondrites or a much‐debated fourth ordinary chondrite group, the HH chondrites. To resolve this debate, we have compiled a large dataset for the ordinary chondrites, low‐fayalite ungrouped chondrites, and IIE irons,

Long-term Stable Equilibria for Synchronous Binary Asteroids

open access: yes, 2011
Synchronous binary asteroids may exist in a long-term stable equilibrium, where the opposing torques from mutual body tides and the binary YORP (BYORP) effect cancel.
