System Modeling and Simulation of TianWen-2 Sampling on an Asteroid Regolith Surface

Space: Science & Technology
As China’s first asteroid exploration mission, the TianWen-2 spacecraft mainly focuses on surface sampling on the near-Earth asteroid 2016 HO3. Different from the usual sampling strategy of releasing a small lander or ejecting a projectile, the whole ...

Dynamical evolution of the Cybele asteroids [PDF]

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2015
The Cybele region, located between the 2J:-1A and 5J:-3A mean-motion resonances, is adjacent and exterior to the asteroid main belt. An increasing density of three-body resonances makes the region between the Cybele and Hilda populations dynamically unstable, so that the Cybele zone could be considered the last outpost of an extended main belt.

Virility, fascism and regeneration in post‐Civil War Spain: On interpretations of literary Romanticism under the Franco regime

Gender &History, EarlyView.
Abstract In the years immediately following the Spanish Civil War, the political culture of Falangism developed a deeply gendered regenerationist discourse, which proposed that regeneration would only be possible if the nation recovered its virile attributes.

The Secular Dynamical Evolution of Binary Asteroid System (65803) Didymos Post-DART

The Planetary Science Journal
The successful impact of NASA’s DART mission with Dimorphos, the secondary body of binary asteroid system (65803) Didymos, altered the attitude, shape, and orbit of Dimorphos.

New knowledge about shock events that affected the L‐chondrite parent body from two heavily shocked L6 meteorite finds

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We report new results from a study of shock‐related features in the L6 ordinary chondrites Northwest Africa (NWA) 4672 and NWA 12841. Our observations confirm the occurrence of eight high‐pressure (HP) minerals in each meteorite, namely, ringwoodite, majorite, akimotoite, wadsleyite, albitic jadeite, lingunite, tuite, and xieite.

Recurring Activity Discovered on Quasi-Hilda 2009 DQ118

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We have discovered two epochs of activity on quasi-Hilda 2009 DQ _118 . Small bodies that display comet-like activity, such as active asteroids and active quasi-Hildas, are important for understanding the distribution of water and other volatiles ...

Noble gases and nitrogen in material from asteroid Bennu

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We report the elemental and isotopic abundances of all stable noble gases (helium, neon, argon, krypton, and xenon) in eight particles from asteroid Bennu returned by NASA's OSIRIS‐REx mission. We also report nitrogen abundances and isotopic ratios that were analyzed alongside neon and argon in four additional Bennu particles.

Static recrystallization of shocked calcite in Ries impact breccias

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Calcite is prone to chemical and microstructural modifications, especially after having been strained at high stresses and strain rates, as during hypervelocity impact events. These modifications include precipitation from pore fluid as well as replacement of strained volumes by recrystallization. In calcite aggregates of a metagranite breccia

Shock metamorphic effects in Itokawa phosphates: A comparison with megaregolith‐derived meteorites

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Returned regolith samples from the asteroid Itokawa provide a unique opportunity to compare shock metamorphic effects in unconsolidated regolith materials with those preserved in lithified meteorites, that is, megaregolith. We analyzed four Itokawa particles (Ueda—RA‐QD02‐0519, Narahara—RA‐QD02‐0573, Domon—RA‐QD02‐0588, Ishiuchi—RX‐MD03‐0212 ...
