Combustion and Pyrolysis EA‐IRMS Techniques to Determine the δ2H of Diamonds
ABSTRACT Rationale Diamonds are generally considered to be metasomatic minerals originating from the Earth's mantle. They formed through the interaction of carbon‐bearing fluids or melts with the surrounding deep lithology. Most knowledge about the formation of diamonds comes from studying their mineral inclusions or stable isotopes.

Radar and Optical Observations and Physical Modeling of Binary Near-Earth Asteroid 2018 EB
We report radar, photometric, and visible-wavelength spectrophotometry observations of NEA 2018 EB obtained in 2018. The radar campaign started at Goldstone (8560 MHz, 3.5 cm) on April 7, and it was followed by more extensive observations from October 5 ...

Weywot, an Unusually Low-albedo Satellite in the Trans-Neptunian Region
Weywot is the largest satellite of the candidate dwarf planet Quaoar, which also hosts a remarkable ring system located beyond its Roche limit—a configuration that challenges conventional understanding of ring dynamics.

Synchronous Rotation in the (120347) Salacia–Actaea System
We report on roughly 16 yr of photometric monitoring of the trans-Neptunian binary system (120347) Salacia–Actaea, which provides significant evidence that Salacia and Actaea are tidally locked to the mutual orbital period in a fully synchronous ...

Discovery and physical properties of Dactyl, a satellite of asteroid 243 Ida
Observations of stellar occultions by asteroids have suggested that some may have satellites. But given the absence of any confirmatory evidence, the prevailing view has been that although such satellites probably do exist, they are likely to be rare ...

A Change of the Rotation Period of Asteroid (65803) Didymos Caused by the DART Impact
On 2022 September 26, the NASA Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft impacted Dimorphos, the secondary component of the binary asteroid (65803) Didymos. This experiment tested the kinetic impactor technology for diverting dangerous asteroids.
