Puzzling rotation of asteroid 288 Glauke
, 2003 Most asteroids rotate about their axis of maximum moment of inertia. However, for several small asteroids with very slow rotation rates, the damping time scale is expected to be longer than the age of the Solar System, implying that these objects may ...

Exploring rotational properties and the YORP effect in asteroid families
Astronomy & AstrophysicsContext. The long-term dynamical evolution of asteroid families is governed by the interplay between orbital and rotational evolution driven by thermal forces and collision. Aims.

Preatmospheric Detection of a Meter-sized Earth Impactor
The Planetary Science Journal, 2023 On 2020 September 18 U.S. Government (USG) sensors detected a bolide with peak bolometric magnitude of −19 over the Western Pacific. The impact was also detected by the Geostationary Lightning Mapper instrument on the GOES-17 satellite and infrasound ...

Asteroid spin-rate studies using large sky-field surveys
Geoscience Letters, 2017 Eight campaigns to survey asteroid rotation periods have been carried out using the intermediate Palomar Transient Factory in the past 3 years. 2780 reliable rotation periods were obtained, from which we identified two new super-fast rotators (SFRs ...
