Rotary-Percussive Ultrasonic Drill: An Effective Subsurface Penetrating Tool for Minor Planet Exploration

open access: goldIEEE Access, 2018
Compared with conventional drill, an ultrasonic drill can break into rocks under lower weight on bit and lower power, which is more suitable to sample in low gravity environment for deep-space exploration. However, the ultrasonic drill cannot remove rock

FindPOTATOs: Minor Planet Observation Linking Software [PDF]

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
For minor planet observations to be archived and used by the scientific community, observations of individual objects must be linked together into groups called tracklets.

Can the Gravitational Effect of Planet X be Detected in Current-era Tracking of the Known Major and Minor Planets? [PDF]

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal, 2023
Using Fisher information matrices, we forecast the uncertainties σ _M on the measurement of a “Planet X” at heliocentric distance d _X via its tidal gravitational field’s action on the known planets.

Early Planet Formation in Embedded Disks (eDisk). III. A First High-resolution View of Submillimeter Continuum and Molecular Line Emission toward the Class 0 Protostar L1527 IRS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Studying the physical and chemical conditions of young embedded disks is crucial to constrain the initial conditions for planet formation. Here we present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array observations of dust continuum at ∼0.″06 (8 au ...

Minor Planet 2008 ED69 and the Kappa Cygnid Meteor Shower [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Until recently, the kappa Cygnids (IAU#12) were considered an old shower, because the meteors were significantly dispersed in node, radiant, and speed, despite being 28-38° inclined.

Early Planet Formation in Embedded Disks (eDisk). VII. Keplerian Disk, Disk Substructure, and Accretion Streamers in the Class 0 Protostar IRAS 16544–1604 in CB 68 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present observations of the Class 0 protostar IRAS 16544–1604 in CB 68 from the “Early Planet Formation in Embedded Disks (eDisk)” ALMA Large program. The ALMA observations target continuum and lines at 1.3 mm with an angular resolution of ∼5 au.

The Chemical Composition of an Extrasolar Minor Planet [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We report the relative abundances of 17 elements in the atmosphere of the white dwarf star GD 362, material that, very probably, was contained previously in a large asteroid or asteroids with composition similar to the Earth/Moon system. The asteroid may
