The relationship between the `limiting' Yarkovsky drift speed and asteroid families' Yarkovsky V-shape [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2020 The Yarkovsky effect is an important force to consider in order to understand the long-term dynamics of asteroids. This non-gravitational force affects the orbital elements of objects revolving around a source of heat, especially their semi ...

On Stable Chaos in The Asteroid Belt [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1999 AbstractThe twenty most chaotic objects found among first hundred of numbered asteroids are studied. Lyapunov time calculated with and without inner planets indicates that for eleven of those asteroids the strongest chaotic effect results from the resonances with Mars.

The transiting dust clumps in the evolved disc of the Sun-like UXor RZ Psc [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 RZ Psc is a young Sun-like star, long associated with the UXor class of variable stars, which is partially or wholly dimmed by dust clumps several times each year.

The distribution of basaltic asteroids in the Main Belt [PDF]
Icarus, 2008 We present the observational results of a survey designed to target and detect asteroids whose colors are similar to those of Vesta family members and thus may be considered as candidates for having a basaltic composition. Fifty basaltic candidates were selected with orbital elements that lie outside of the Vesta dynamical family.

Phase Curves of Kuiper Belt Objects, Centaurs, and Jupiter-family Comets from the ATLAS Survey
The Planetary Science Journal, 2023 The Kuiper Belt objects (KBOs), the Centaurs, and the Jupiter-family comets (JFCs) form an evolutionary continuum of small outer solar system objects, and their study allows us to gain insight into the history and evolution of the solar system. Broadband

Intelligent Interplanetary Satellite Communication Network for the Exploration of Celestial Bodies
Engineering Proceedings, 2023 Recently, a significant interest in space exploration has emerged, driven by the lack of resources and the quest for answers to issues like climate change.

Physical properties of asteroids
Вісник Астрономічної школи, 2000 The most significant data on the physical properties of main-belt and near-Earth asteroids obtained by photometric, polarimetric, spectroscopic and other techniques, including space missions «Galileo» and NEAR, are presented.

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022 Orbital systems are often self-organized and/or characterized by harmonic relations. Inspired by music theory, we rewrite the Geddes and King-Hele (QJRAS, 24, 10–13, 1983) equations for mirror symmetries among the distances of the planets of the Solar ...

The Mid-plane of the Main Asteroid Belt [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2018 Abstract We measure the mid-plane of the main asteroid belt by using the observational data of a nearly complete and unbiased sample of asteroids and find that it has inclination and longitude of ascending node

Asteroid Collisions: Expected Visibility and Rate
The Astronomical JournalAsteroid collisions are one of the main processes responsible for the evolution of bodies in the main belt. Using observations of the Dimorphos impact by the DART spacecraft, we estimate how asteroid collisions in the main belt may look in the first ...
