Dynamical evolution of cometary asteroids [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1998 ABSTRA C T We present results from long-term numerical integrations of hypothetical Jupiter-family comets (JFCs) over time-scales in excess of the estimated cometary active lifetime. During inactive periods these bodies could be considered as ‘cometary’ near-Earth objects (NEOs) or ‘cometary asteroids’. The contribution of cometary asteroids to the NEO

Mirror formation control in the vicinity of an asteroid [PDF]
, 2008 Two strategies are presented for the positioning and control of a spacecraft formation designed to focus sunlight onto a point on the surface of asteroid, thereby sublimating the material and ejecting debris creating thrust.

Dynamical lifetimes of asteroids in retrograde orbits [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2017 The population of known minor bodies in retrograde orbits ($i > 90 ^{\circ}$) that are classified as asteroids is still growing. The aim of our study was to estimate the dynamical lifetimes of these bodies by use of the latest observational data, including astrometry and physical properties.

Dynamical Masses of 20 Asteroids Determined with Gaia DR3 Asteroid Observations
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 Abstract We combined the ground-based and Gaia Data Release 3 (DR3) asteroid observations to determine the masses of 20 asteroids with asteroid–asteroid close encounters. In order to take full advantage of the high-precision observations from Gaia, we use the Fisher information to select appropriate model parameters and the modified ...

Experimental Observation of a Calcium Silicon Double Carbonate
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.High‐pressure and ‐temperature reactions between Ca5(Si2O7)(CO3)2 tilleyite and CO2 carbon dioxide yield the first experimental evidence of the double carbonate Ca2Si(CO3)4 and a new Ca2(C4O10) phase containing tetrahedral [CO4] units. These findings reveal unexpected carbonate chemistry and highlight pathways for carbon incorporation under mantle ...

Dynamic autonomous intelligent control of an asteroid lander [PDF]
, 2010 One of the future flagship missions of the European Space Agency (ESA) is the asteroid sample return mission Marco-Polo. Although there have been a number of past missions to asteroids, a sample has never been successfully returned.

DYNAMICAL EFFECTS FROM ASTEROID BELTS FOR PLANETARY SYSTEMS [PDF]
International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos, 2004 The orbital evolution and stability of planetary systems with interaction from the belts is studied using the standard phase-plane analysis. In addition to the fixed point which corresponds to the Keplerian orbit, there are other fixed points around the inner and outer edges of the belt.

Imbalanced classification applied to asteroid resonant dynamics
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023 Introduction: Machine learning (ML) applications for studying asteroid resonant dynamics are a relatively new field of study. Results from several different approaches are currently available for asteroids interacting with the z2, z1, M1:2, and ν6 ...
