Predicting Performance of Hall Effect Ion Source Using Machine Learning

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
This study introduces HallNN, a machine learning tool for predicting Hall effect ion source performance using a neural network ensemble trained on data generated from numerical simulations. HallNN provides faster and more accurate predictions than numerical methods and traditional scaling laws, making it valuable for designing and optimizing Hall ...

The Dynamical State of the Didymos System before and after the DART Impact

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft impacted Dimorphos, the natural satellite of (65803) Didymos, on 2022 September 26, as a first successful test of kinetic impactor technology for deflecting a potentially hazardous object in space.

Resonances in the asteroid and trans-Neptunian belts: a brief review

open access: yes, 2018
Mean motion resonances play a fundamental role in the dynamics of the small bodies of the Solar System. The last decades of the 20th century gave us a detailed description of the dynamics as well as the process of capture of small bodies in coplanar or ...

Crater Observing Bioinspired Rolling Articulator (COBRA)

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Crater Observing Bio‐inspired Rolling Articulator (COBRA) is a modular, snake‐inspired robot that addresses the mobility challenges of extraterrestrial exploration sites such as Shackleton Crater. Incorporating snake‐like gaits and tumbling locomotion, COBRA navigates both uneven surfaces and steep crater walls.

On the Fate of Slow Boulders Ejected after DART Impact on Dimorphos

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
On 2022 September 26 23:14 UT, the NASA Double Asteroid Redirection Test spacecraft successfully impacted Dimorphos, the secondary component of the binary (65803) Didymos system, demonstrating asteroid orbit deflection for the first time.

Asteroid deflection and exploitation : possible synergies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The asteroid and cometary impact hazard has long been recognised as an important issue requiring risk assessment and contingency planning. At the same time asteroids have also been acknowledged as possible sources of raw materials for future large-scale ...

Design of a Formation of Solar Pumped Lasers for Asteroid Deflection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper presents the design of a multi-spacecraft system for the deflection of asteroids. Each spacecraft is equipped with a fibre laser and a solar concentrator. The laser induces the sublimation of a portion of the surface of the asteroid.

Simulating the (99942) Apophis Earth Flyby Using a Contact Binary Model

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
This paper investigates the mass shifts of asteroid (99942) Apophis during its 2029 close encounter with Earth, using the contact dynamics method, a type of discrete element method. Unlike previous analyses, we model the asteroid as a contact binary body
