Impact cratering experiments into highly porous bodies [PDF]

, 2011
Asteroids represent both an opportunity and a risk. Their pristine environment captures the early collision evolution of the solar system; while their inherent ground impact potential could result in the mass extinction of life.

Investigation and modelling of large scale cratering events : Lessons learnt from experimental analysis [PDF]

, 2011
Initiated as part of the 2010 Spin Your Thesis campaign, a new ESA Education programme, a group from the University of Glasgow Space Advanced Research Team successfully conducted a series of impact cratering experiments under a highly accelerated ...

Dynamic cratering of graphite: Experimental results and simulations [PDF]

, 2013
The cratering process in brittle materials under hypervelocity impact (HVI) is of major relevance for debris shielding in spacecraft or high-power laser applications.

Fragment shapes in impact experiments ranging from cratering to catastrophic disruption [PDF]

, 2016
Laboratory impact experiments have found that impact fragments tend to be elongated. Their shapes, as defined by axes a, b and c, these being the maximum dimensions of the fragment in three mutually orthogonal planes (a⩾b⩾c), are distributed around mean ...

Large impact cratering during lunar magma ocean solidification [PDF]

, 2021
The lunar cratering record is used to constrain the bombardment history of both the Earth and the Moon. However, it is suggested from different perspectives, including impact crater dating, asteroid dynamics, lunar samples, impact basin-forming ...

Oblique impact cratering experiments in brittle targets: Implications for elliptical craters on the Moon [PDF]

, 2017
Most impact craters observed on planetary bodies are the results of oblique impacts of meteoroids. To date, however, there have only been very few laboratory oblique impact experiments for analogue targets relevant to the surfaces of extraterrestrial ...
