Depth of Cracking beneath Impact Craters: New Constraint for Impact Velocity [PDF]
, 2002 Both small-scale impact craters in the laboratory and less than 5 km in diameter bowl-shaped craters on the Earth are strength (of rock) controlled. In the strength regime, crater volumes are nearly proportional to impactor kinetic energy.

Morphometric Analysis of Pluto’s Impact Craters
Remote Sensing, 2021 The scope of this work is to carry out a morphometric analysis of Pluto’s impact craters. A global Pluto digital elevation model (DEM) with a resolution of 300 m/px, created from stereoscopic pairs obtained by the New Horizons Mission, was used to ...

Holocene impact craters on Earth
Miscellanea Geographica: Regional Studies on Development, 2023 Impact craters are formed by collisions of cosmic bodies moving with hypervelocity. The formation of these features is not restricted to the distant geological past; new structures are constantly being created and at least 13 confirmed impact craters and

A Machine Learning Approach to Crater Classification from Topographic Data
Remote Sensing, 2019 Craters contain important information on geological history and have been widely used for dating absolute age and reconstructing impact history. The impact process results in a lot of ejected fragments and these fragments may form secondary craters ...
