Orbits of very distant asteroid satellites

Astronomy & Astrophysics
The very wide binary asteroid (VWBA) population is a small subset of the population of known binary and multiple asteroids made of systems with very widely orbiting satellites and long orbital periods, on the order of tens to hundreds of days. The origin

Collisions and Gravitational Reaccumulation: Forming Asteroid Families and Satellites

Science, 2001
Numerical 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.

Satellites of asteroids

Physics-Uspekhi, 1995
More than 6000 asteroids in the Solar System have now been discovered and enumerated, and about 500 of them have been investigated in detail by different methods. This rewiew gives observational evidence which indicates that no fewer than 10% of asteroids may be composed of two or more bodies.

Probability for cosmic masses of the main asteroid belt to approach the Earth

Acta Astronautica, 2021
The problem of space flights safety arose with the beginning of the first launches of artificial Earth satellites. With expansion of the boundaries of space flights, the area of outer space that must be controlled to ensure flight safety is significantly
