The distribution of asteroids: evidence from Antarctic micrometeorites [PDF]
The relative abundances of types amongst 550 AMMs are reported. These suggest that C-type asteroids vary from petrologic type 1 to 3.2 and that the majority of S-type asteroids are chondrule ...

Biogeography of intertidal invertebrates is influenced by latitude along the west coast of Australia
Along the west coast of Australia, intertidal rock platforms support high invertebrate diversities that provide vital ecosystem services, yet patterns in diversity are not well understood. Here, we document and examine the invertebrate assemblages on intertidal rock platforms in Western Australia and delineate ecoregions according to assemblage ...

Where do asteroids come from and what are they made of? What clues do they hold about the evolution of the Solar System? Scientists have catalogued hundreds of thousands of asteroids, and many are thought to contain water and amino acids, the building blocks of life. Michael Shepard tells the fascinating story of their discovery, and what they can tell

Mathematical modeling of the asteroids' motion belonging to the Apollo and Aten groups
This article evaluates the accuracy of solutions to differential equations of motion, taking into account relativistic effects obtained on the basis of a new principle of interaction, using the example of studies of the evolution of the orbits of five ...

BVRI photometry of 53 unusual asteroids
We present the results of BVRI photometry and classification of 53 unusual asteroids, including 35 near-Earth asteroids (NEAs), 6 high eccentricity/inclination asteroids, and 12 recently-identified asteroid-pair candidates.

Using a number of different conventional observing methods of astronomy like spectrophotometry, polarimetry, IR-radiometry and UBV-photometry, physical properties of asteroids can be derived, such as diameters, spectral reflectivity and albedo. Based on observable parameters a classification in terms of taxonomic types can be made and the mineralogy of

Mikrometeorite und ihr Ursprung im Sonnensystem: Außerirdischer Staub zum Anfassen
Mit einer Größe, die der Dicke eines Haares entspricht, sind Mikrometeorite kaum sichtbar für das bloße Auge. Dennoch werden sie seit etwa 150 Jahren gesammelt, und seit wenigen Jahren sogar auf unseren Hausdächern. Als Kostproben von Asteroiden oder Kometen stellen sie wertvolle Boten unseres Sonnensystems dar.

Context. One of the main bottlenecks in assessing the accuracy of the Mars orbit is the unknown value of the asteroids in the main asteroid belt. A modeling with 343 asteroids as point masses is used today, with the relative masses fit to observational ...
