Tidal disruptions of rubble piles: The case of Phobos
Astronomy & AstrophysicsContext. Many small satellites in the Solar System have sub-synchronous orbits, meaning their orbits are decaying due to tidal dissipation. Unless they have substantial material strength, they will eventually tidally disrupt before reaching their planet ...

Geophysical Research Letters, 1977 Radio tracking data associated with the February 1977 encounters between the Martian satellite Phobos and the Viking Orbiter I spacecraft have been analyzed to determine the gravitational constant (GM) of Phobos. A linear error analysis was conducted to determine the selection of data and the parameter solution set which would yield the best estimate ...

Modeling the Crustal Magnetic Field of Mars With Physics‐Informed Neural Networks
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 11, November 2025.Abstract Satellites orbiting Mars have measured crustal magnetic fields up to two orders of magnitude stronger than those on Earth. Although Mars currently lacks an active global magnetic field, this magnetization preserves a valuable record of the planet's early dynamo activity and crustal evolution.

Simulation of gravity field estimation of Phobos for Martian Moon eXploration (MMX)
Earth, Planets and SpaceWe study the dynamic orbit about Phobos of the Martian Moon eXploration (MMX) spacecraft and simulate gravity field estimation using Doppler, image landmarks, and LIght Detection And Ranging (LIDAR) data based on a mission plan of MMX and investigate ...

3D SR‐μXCT analysis for lithology detection: Application to Ryugu sample A0159
Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 60, Issue 11, Page 2623-2654, November 2025.Abstract Extraterrestrial breccia samples are formed through impact‐related processes that combine the fragments of distinct lithologies. As such, they are valuable indicators of the complex formation and evolution history of planetesimals in our solar system.

, 1993 Phobos at Sparta The significance of the cult of Phobos at Sparta is analysed, based on a passage in Plutarch's "Life of Cleomenes" on the building of a hieron, contemporary with a reform reinforcing the power of the ephors.

Space‐Weathered Anorthosite as Spectral D‐Type Material on the Martian Satellites
Geophysical Research Letters, 2018 Spectral D‐type asteroids are characterized by dark, red‐sloped, and featureless spectra at visible and near‐infrared wavelengths and are thought to be composed of rocks rich in organic compounds.

Research Notes of the AASAbstract In 1966, Iosif Shklovsky and Carl Sagan theorized that exospheric drag could explain Phobos’s rapid inspiral rate towards Mars if Phobos were hollow. Later observations revealed a slower orbital decay rate, and updated models can account for this rate via tidal friction.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.Based on the chloroplast genomes, the phylogenetic relationship of durian cultivars was visualized. Furthermore, 13 SSR primer pairs were designed and could be applied for genetic diversity and genotyping studies. ABSTRACT Durian, or Durio zibethinus, is an exotic fruit with high economic value in Southeast Asia.
