Attitude dynamics of satellites orbiting an asteroid
The Journal of the Astronautical Sciences, 2006Attitude motion of satellites orbiting an asteroid is examined. The highly irregular shape of the asteroids along with their rotational states can lead to very interesting attitude dynamics. As a start, the case of uniform rotation of the asteroid is examined and attention is focused on planar attitude motion (pitch).

Collisions and Gravitational Reaccumulation: Forming Asteroid Families and Satellites
Science, 2001Numerical simulations of the collisional disruption of large asteroids show that although the parent body is totally shattered, subsequent gravitational reaccumulation leads to the formation of an entire family of large and small objects with dynamical properties similar to those of the parent body.

Asteroid Hazard Prediction Using Machine Learning: A Comparative Analysis of Different Algorithms
2023 3rd International Conference on Advancement in Electronics & Communication Engineering (AECE), 2023The prediction of asteroid risk is a crucial topic in the realm of space technology. The utilization of machine learning techniques has enabled the identification of asteroids in photographic and video data obtained from telescopes and satellites ...

Satellites of two large asteroids [PDF]
Astronomical & Astrophysical Transactions, 1998 Abstract Various observational data obtained over a period of about 100 years have led to the assumption that some asteroids have satellites. A review of publications has allowed us to compose a list of 50 asteroids that are supposed to be binary. Asteroid 243 Ida with satellite Dactil discovered by space probe Galileo became the 51st.

Asteroids with satellites: Analysis of observational data [PDF]
Solar System Research, 2013 The volume of observational information on asteroids and trans-Neptunians with satellites has significantly increased in recent years. In this paper we study the dependence of asteroid duplicity on the main physical parameters of the primary: the size and rotation rate.

The absence of satellites of asteroids
Icarus, 1987Abstract A CCD-imaging survey was made for satellites of minor planets at distances of about 0.1 to 7 arcmin from 1 Ceres, 2 Pallas, 4 Vesta, 6 Hebe, 7 Iris, 8 Flora, 15 Eunomia, 29 Amphitrite, 41 Daphne, and 44 Nysa, with cursory inspection of 192 Nausikaa. Satellites larger than 3 km were not found in this work, nor in previous photographic surveys.

On the fragmentation of asteroids and planetary satellites
Icarus, 1990A general scaling model is defined which allows the extrapolation of small-scale collisional fragmentation experiment results, and existing collisional theories are considered within its framework. Scaling based exclusively upon the specific energy, Q, of the event (the ratio of projectile kinetic energy to the mass of the target body) is shown to hold
