Differentiation signatures in the Flora region

open access: yes, 2015
Most asteroid families are very homogeneous in physical properties. Some show greater diversity, however. The Flora family is the most intriguing of them.

The Mid-plane of the Main Asteroid Belt [PDF]

open access: yesThe 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

Widespread Impact‐Induced Crustal Permeability on the Early Earth

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract The early Earth (i.e., Archean and Hadean Eons, 2.5–4.0 and 4.0–4.5 Ga, respectively) experienced frequent cosmic bombardment. Impacts have been shown to stimulate crustal alteration, for instance via hydrothermal systems active for up to millions of years post‐impact.

Phase Curves of Kuiper Belt Objects, Centaurs, and Jupiter-family Comets from the ATLAS Survey

open access: yesThe 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

Asteroid taxonomic signatures from photometric phase curves

open access: yes, 2012
We explore the correlation between an asteroid's taxonomy and photometric phase curve using the H, G12 photometric phase function, with the shape of the phase function described by the single parameter G12.

Archives of impact: The politics of craters on Earth

open access: yesGeographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2026.
This paper examines Earth’s 195 confirmed impact craters as archives, exploring their cataloguing and presentation as heritage sites. It argues Western scientific framings using military language and emphasising catastrophe overlook settler colonialism’s violent histories and marginalise indigenous earth‐sky cosmologies.

Asteroid Collisions: Expected Visibility and Rate

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Asteroid 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 ...

Scattering V-type asteroids during the giant planets instability: A step for Jupiter, a leap for basalt

open access: yes, 2017
V-type asteroids are a taxonomic class whose surface is associated to a basaltic composition. The only known source of V-type asteroids in the Main Asteroid Belt is (4) Vesta, that is located in the inner part of the belt.

Lightcurve survey of V-type asteroids in the inner asteroid belt [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of Japan, 2014
Abstract We observed the lightcurves of 13 V-type asteroids [(1933) Tinchen, (2011) Veteraniya, (2508) Alupka, (3657) Ermolova, (3900) Knezevic, (4005) Dyagilev, (4383) Suruga, (4434) Nikulin, (4796) Lewis, (6331) 1992 FZ1, (8645) 1998 TN, (10285) Renemichelsen, and (10320) Reiland].

In situ single‐spot Rb/Sr cosmochronology of roedderite in the Ribbeck aubrite (asteroid 2024 BX1)

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 5, Page 768-781, May 2026.
Abstract The mineralogy and textures of several fragments from the Ribbeck aubrite were analyzed using a combination of scanning electron microscopy, electron microprobe analysis, μRaman spectroscopy, and laser ablation inductively coupled reaction cell mass spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS/MS).
