The Cumulation of Debris Clouds around a Fast-rotating Asteroid
The Astrophysical JournalThe rotational mass loss has been realized to be a prevalent mechanism to produce low-speed debris near the asteroid, and the size composition of the asteroid’s surface regolith has been closely measured by in situ explorations.

Bio‐Inspired Swarm Robotics Design for Mine Automation
Natural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.Ants demonstrate tandem running for cooperative haulage, and honeybees use memory‐based routes between hive and flowers. These behaviours inspire autonomous haulage robots in open‐pit mines to achieve efficient scan‐plan‐retrieve ore transport, replacing small haulage robots with large mining trucks.

Rotationally Resolved Mid-infrared Spectroscopy of (16) Psyche
The Planetary Science JournalAsteroid (16) Psyche is theorized to be an exposed iron core of a primordial asteroid and is the target of the upcoming NASA Psyche mission. Recent observations of Psyche identified the presence of rotational heterogeneity, a fine-grained regolith ...

Multi-criteria comparison among several mitigation strategies for dangerous near Earth objects
, 2009 In this paper a comparative assessment of the effectiveness of different deviation methods for Near Earth Objects is presented. Specifically, solar collector, nuclear interceptor, kinetic impactor, low-thrust propulsion, mass driver and gravity tug are ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Xenon (Xe) is a heavy noble gas with intriguing chemical properties, such as having several stable isotopes and the ability to form compounds under extreme conditions. Despite the predictions based on cosmochemical models that suggest xenon should be relatively abundant in planetary reservoirs, empirical data indicate a significant depletion ...

Statistics of asteroid axis rotation
, 1991 Показано, что по зависимостям скорости осевого вращения от диаметра и удельного углового момента от массы, астероиды делятся на три группы в соответствии с разной степенью влияния столкновительной эволюции на параметры, их осевого вращения.

Dynamic 3D Simulation of Surface Charging on Rotating Asteroids
The Astrophysical JournalThe surface-charging phenomenon of asteroids, mainly resulting from solar wind plasma and solar radiation, has been extensively studied. However, the influence of the asteroid’s rotation on surface charging is not yet fully understood.

Nonextensive distributions of asteroid rotation periods and diameters
, 2012 Context. We investigate the distribution of asteroid rotation periods from different regions of the solar system and diameter distributions of near-Earth asteroids (NEAs). Aims. We aim to verify if nonextensive statistics satisfactorily describes
