Low-thrust tour of the main belt asteroids [PDF]

, 2016
This work presents some preliminary results on the low-thrust tour of the main asteroid belt. The asteroids are visited through a series of fly-by’s that minimise the total cost of the manoeuvres.

Photometry and Models of Seven Main-Belt Asteroids

Universe
The China Near-Earth Object Survey Telescope (CNEOST) conducted four photometric surveys from 2015 to 2018 using image processing and aperture photometry techniques to obtain extensive light curve data on asteroids. The second-order Fourier series method

The distribution of mantle material among main-belt asteroids

, 2014
International audienceWe expect there to have been many bodies in the Main Asteroid Belt (MB) sufficiently heated at the time of solar system formation to allow their interiors to differentiate into an iron core and silicate-rich crust and mantle ...

Overview of Water-Ice in Asteroids—Targets of a Revolution by LSST and JWST

Universe
Water-ice occurs inside many minor bodies almost throughout the Solar System. To have an overview of the inventory of water-ice in asteroids, beside the general characteristics of their activity, examples are presented with details, including the Hilda ...
