Precise Orbit Determination of Mars-crossing Asteroids

The Astronomical Journal
This study investigates the orbit determination of the Mars-crossing asteroids (MCAs) with a focus on the possibility of detecting their Yarkovsky signals. We analyze the influences of force model uncertainties on MCA orbits, including the uncertainty of

Earth-Approaching Asteroids as Targets for Exploration [PDF]

A mission strategy focused on the earth approaching asteroids is presented. The opportunities for sample return and manned visits favor the closer Apollos and Amors over the main belt ...

Unusual Space Weathering on a CE-5 Metal Grain Indicates Deceptive Surface Signatures of M-type Asteroids

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
M-type asteroids are historically thought to be exposed metallic cores of differentiated planets with a composition dominated by pure iron and nickel. However, recent spectral and radar observations reveal an insufficient number of M-type asteroids in ...

Asteroid Collisions: Expected Visibility and Rate

The Astronomical Journal
Asteroid collisions are one of the main processes responsible for the evolution of bodies in the main belt. Using observations of the Dimorphos impact by the DART spacecraft, we estimate how asteroid collisions in the main belt may look in the first ...
