Gauss-Radau Small-body Simulator (GRSS): An Open-source Library for Planetary Defense

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
We present GRSS , a small-body propagation and orbit determination library specifically designed for planetary defense applications. GRSS is an end-to-end, open-source software tool that begins with optical observations obtained from the Minor Planet ...

Near-Earth Asteroids as Possible Parent Bodies of Meteor Streams [PDF]

open access: yesУчёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Естественные науки, 2016
The genetic relationship of meteor streams with near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) is being actively studied. A genetic link with the asteroid is possible only for streams in which meteoroids have the geocentric speed smaller than 50 km/s, thereby meaning the ...

Retrieval of Interior Structure of Asteroids with the Low-Frequency Telescope DART

open access: yesSpace: Science & Technology
Understanding the internal structure of asteroids is crucial for deciphering their formation and establishing defenses against potential hazards. The Daocheng Radio Telescope (DART), a recently constructed interferometric array designed for low-frequency

Achievement of the Planetary Defense Investigations of the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) Mission

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission was the first to demonstrate asteroid deflection, and the mission's Level 1 requirements guided its planetary defense investigations. Here, we summarize DART's achievement of those requirements.
