Asteroid Fragmentation and Evolution of Asteroids

Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 2000
To understand the complex collisional history of asteroids and explain their observed characteristics, it is necessary to be able to describe the fundamental physics of large-scale impact events. Because data collected on collisional outcomes is derived from small-scale laboratory experiments, success at describing asteroid evolution hinges ...

Asteroid clusters similar to asteroid pairs

Icarus, 2018
Abstract We studied the membership, size ratio and rotational properties of 13 asteroid clusters consisting of between 3 and 19 known members that are on similar heliocentric orbits. By backward integrations of their orbits, we confirmed their cluster membership and estimated times elapsed since separation of the secondaries (the smaller cluster ...

Determination of Masses of Six Asteroids from Close Asteroid—Asteroid Encounters

2001
New masses of six asteroids: (6) Hebe, (10) Hygiea, (15) Eunomia, (52) Europa, (511) Davida and (704) Interamnia were determined within the ongoing Asteroid Mass Determination Program, started in 1998 in the Wroclaw University Observatory. The masses were calculated by means of the least-squares method as weighted means of the values found separately ...

Asteroids

2016
Asteroid science is a fundamental topic in planetary science and is key to furthering our understanding of planetary formation and the evolution of the Solar System. Ground-based observations and missions have provided a wealth of new data in recent years, and forthcoming missions promise further exciting results.

Collisions of Asteroids: Asteroid (596) Sheila

Astrophysical Bulletin, 2019
Among the small bodies of the Solar System, at present, a group of bodies, called comets of the main belt, exhibiting dynamic and/or physical properties of both comets and asteroids is distinguished. One of the reasons for such manifestations may be collisions with other bodies.

Asteroid-Asteroid Interactions - Dynamically Irrelevant?

1991
Structural investigations of the distribution of the asteroids have so far concentrated on the interactions with the major planets, especially Jupiter, and the resulting effects in element space. Here some less known structures of their distribution in actual space are shown: the radial number density and the orthogonal orbit density.

Collisional evolution of asteroids and asteroid families.

1987
After a general review of the current ideas about collisional evolution the problems concerning the interpretation of asteroid families as outcomes of catastrophic processes are discussed.
