Euclid: Asteroid rotation periods from the Euclid Ecliptic Survey★

Astronomy & Astrophysics
The Euclid Ecliptic Survey was conducted during the calibration phase of the mission, from 23 to 31 December 2023, as a campaign to study Solar System objects. We used data from this survey to analyse more than 23 000 appeareances of 2321 known asteroids.

Direct N-body Simulations of Satellite Formation around Small Asteroids: Insights from DART’s Encounter with the Didymos System

The Planetary Science Journal
We explore binary asteroid formation by spin-up and rotational disruption considering the NASA DART mission's encounter with the Didymos–Dimorphos binary, which was the first small binary visited by a spacecraft.

Rotationally Resolved Near-infrared Spectroscopy of Three Large Eurybates Family Members

The Planetary Science Journal
The Eurybates family is the largest collisional family in the Jupiter Trojan population. Previous visible spectroscopy of asteroid (3548) Eurybates has shown potential surface heterogeneity due to rotation of the asteroid.

Asteroid Rotational Disruption Optimization

Rotational disruption of asteroids is a crucial dynamical phenomenon in astrophysics. It occurs when an asteroid accelerates its rotation or increases its angular momentum, causing it to break apart or fragment due to its own gravity and material strength being unable to maintain its overall structure.

Asteroid Rotational Breakup Optimization

This paper proposes an optimization algorithm, Asteroid Rotational Breakup Optimization (ARBO), based on the physics metaphor of asteroid breakup. By simulating the breakup and fragment reassembly of asteroids under high-speed rotation, ARBO enables efficient exploration of complex search spaces.
