Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract The longest known Aletai meteorite belt presents a unique phenomenon in meteoroid dynamics. To investigate its formation mechanism, this study introduces a bilobate‐shaped meteoroid model, emphasizing aerodynamic interactions and structure evolution.

Mass, Density, and Radius of Asteroid (16) Psyche from High-precision Astrometry
The Astronomical JournalWe characterize asteroid (16) Psyche using high-precision astrometry, including the recent Gaia Focused Product Release. The gravitational perturbations of Psyche on other asteroids can be observable in the case of mutual encounters.

The first confirmation of V-type asteroids among the Mars crosser population [PDF]
, 2014 The Mars crossing region constitutes a path to deliver asteroids from the Inner Main Belt to the Earth crossing space. While both the Inner Main Belt and the population of Earth crossing asteroids contains a significant fraction of asteroids belonging to

Eccentricity distribution in the main asteroid belt [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016 The observationally complete sample of the main belt asteroids now spans more than two orders of magnitude in size and numbers more than 64,000 (excluding collisional family members). We undertook an analysis of asteroids' eccentricities and their interpretation with simple physical models.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract Primitive asteroids and carbonaceous chondrites (CCs) record the history of processes in the early solar system. Visible and shortwave infrared (VSWIR) spectroscopy of primitive asteroids and bulk‐powdered CCs has identified shared spectral features suggestive of shared parent body origins.

The Distribution of Highly Red-sloped Asteroids in the Middle and Outer Main Belt
The Planetary Science JournalRed ( S > 10%/0.1 μ m) spectral slopes are common among Centaurs and trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) in the outer solar system. Interior to and co-orbital with Jupiter, the red ( S ∼ 10%/0.1 μ m) slopes of D-type main-belt and Jupiter Trojan asteroids are

Formation of Asteroid (16) Psyche by a Giant Impact
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract Asteroid (16) Psyche is the largest likely metal‐rich asteroid in the Solar System and the target of the NASA Psyche mission. The mission aims to determine whether the asteroid is the core of a differentiated planetesimal that lost its mantle via a giant impact.

Asteroid Systems: Binaries, Triples, and Pairs
, 2015 In the past decade, the number of known binary near-Earth asteroids has more than quadrupled and the number of known large main belt asteroids with satellites has doubled.

The Orbital and Absolute Magnitude Distributions of Main Belt Asteroids [PDF]
, 1998 We have developed a model-independent analytical method for debiasing the four-dimensional (a,e,i,H) distribution obtained in any asteroid observation program and have applied the technique to results obtained with the 0.9m Spacewatch Telescope.
