Asteroid rotation excitation by subcatastrophic impacts [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2013 Photometric observations of asteroids show that some of them are in non-principal axis rotation state (free precession), called tumbling. Collisions between asteroids have been proposed as a possible asteroid rotation excitation mechanism. We simulated subcatastrophic collisions between asteroids of various physical and material parameters to find out ...

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Asteroid systems such as binaries and pairs are indicative of the physical properties and dynamical histories of small solar system bodies. Although numerous observational and theoretical studies have been carried out, the formation mechanism of asteroid

A Comprehensive Comparison of Period Extraction Algorithms for Asteroids with Long Term Observation
Universe, 2021 The light curve period of an asteroid plays an important role in determining the rotation period, the collision evolution and the YORP effect. There are many period extraction algorithms used to find the light curve period of asteroids with long term ...

Orbital Mechanics near a Rotating Asteroid [PDF]
Journal of Astrophysics and Astronomy, 2014 This study investigates the different novel forms of the dynamical equations of a particle orbiting a rotating asteroid and the effective potential, the Jacobi integral, etc. on different manifolds. Nine new forms of the dynamical equations of a particle orbiting a rotating asteroid are presented, and the classical form of the dynamical equations has ...

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 ...

A Photometric Survey of over 200 V-type Asteroids and Their Phase-curve Analysis
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement SeriesV-type asteroids are considered to be crustal fragments of asteroid (4) Vesta and possibly of other differentiated parent bodies that once existed in the main asteroid belt.
