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