Influence of the dynamic classification of asteroids on observation astrometric errors: A statistical analysis

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023
The ephemerides of minor planets are computed on the basis of astrometric observations. The asteroid Orbit Determination process requires these observations to be properly weighted to take into account the expected accuracy of the data. If not directly

Inferring interiors and structural history of top-shaped asteroids from external properties of asteroid (101955) Bennu

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Asteroid interiors play a key role in our understanding of asteroid formation and evolution. As no direct interior probing has been done yet, characterisation of asteroids’ interiors relies on interpretations of external properties.

ASTEROIDS: A Stixel Tracking Extrapolation-Based Relevant Obstacle Impact Detection System

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Intelligent Vehicles, 2020
This paper presents a vision-based collision-warning system for ADAS in intelligent vehicles, with a focus on urban scenarios. In most current systems, collision warnings are based on radar, or on monocular vision using pattern recognition.

Uninterrupted optical light curves of main-belt asteroids from the K2 mission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Context. Because the second reaction wheel failed, a new mission was conceived for the otherwise healthy Kepler space telescope. In the course of the K2 mission, the telescope is staring at the plane of the Ecliptic.

Hydrodynamics of tsunamis generated by asteroid impact in the Black Sea

open access: yesOpen Physics, 2012
Abstract Two-dimensional and one-dimensional models are used to evaluate the seashore effects of the tsunami generated by an asteroid hitting the deep water in the Eastern region of the Black Sea. The shallow water theory has been used to describe tsunami propagation.

A case of atypical nocardia asteroides sclerouveitis resistant to fourth-generation fluoroquinolones [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Oftalmologia, 2016
ABSTRACT We describe an unusual case of Nocardia spp scleritis in a health girl resistant to topical fourth-generation fluoroquinolones. Clinically, there was only partial response of the scleritis to initial therapy. Treatment was changed to meropenem intravenously and topical amikacin.

Accuracy of view factor calculations for digital terrain models of comets and asteroids

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2020
Context. Detailed shape and topographic models coupled with sophisticated thermal physics are critical elements to proper characterization of surfaces of small bodies in our solar system.

Sublimation-induced orbital perturbations of extrasolar active asteroids and comets: application to white dwarf systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The metal budgets in some white dwarf (WD) atmospheres reveal that volatile-rich circumstellar bodies must both exist in extrasolar systems and survive the giant branch phases of stellar evolution.

An integrated DEM code for tracing the entire regolith mass movement on asteroids

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
This paper presents a general strategy for tracking the scale-span movement process of asteroid regolith materials. It achieves the tracking of the mass movement on the asteroid at a realistic scale, under conditions of high-resolution asteroid surface

Temporary Capture of Asteroids by an Eccentric Planet [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We have investigated the probability of temporary capture of asteroids in eccentric orbits by a planet in a circular or eccentric orbit through analytical and numerical calculations.
