Morphology of ejecta features from the impact on asteroid Dimorphos [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsHypervelocity impacts play a significant role in the evolution of asteroids, causing material to be ejected and partially reaccreted. However, the dynamics and evolution of ejected material in a binary asteroid system have never been observed directly ...

A Numerical Research on a New Type of Asteroid Flexible Probe
IEEE Access, 2021 The asteroid landing detection is of great scientific and economic value. The traditional landing rigid probe is prone to rebound and escape due to the asteroid’s weak gravity and rugged terrain.

Machine learning applied to asteroid dynamics
Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy, 2022 Machine Learning (ML) is the branch of computer science that studies computer algorithms that can learn from data. It is mainly divided into supervised learning, where the computer is presented with examples of entries, and the goal is to learn a general rule that maps inputs to outputs, and unsupervised learning, where no label is provided to the ...

Mathematics, 2023 We have considered here a novel particular model for dynamics of a non-rigid asteroid rotation, assuming the added mass model instead of the concept of Viscoelastic Oblate Rotators to describe the physically reasonable response of a ‘rubble pile ...

Spacecraft swarm dynamics and control about asteroids [PDF]
Advances in Space Research, 2021 This paper presents a novel methodology to control spacecraft swarms about singleasteroids with arbitrary gravitational potential coefficients. This approach enablesthe use of small, autonomous swarm spacecraft in conjunction with a mothership,reducing the need for the Deep Space Network and increasing safety in future as-teroid missions.

The Perturbed Full Two-body Problem: Application to Post-DART Didymos
The Planetary Science Journal, 2023 With the successful impact of the NASA Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft in the Didymos–Dimorphos binary asteroid system, we provide an initial analysis of the post-impact perturbed binary asteroid dynamics.
