Glycine amino acid transformation under impacts by small solar system bodies, simulated via high-pressure torsion method [PDF]
Impacts by small solar system bodies (meteoroids, asteroids, comets and transitional objects) are characterized by a combination of energy dynamics and chemical modification on both terrestrial and small solar system bodies.

Constraints on the Gamma-Ray Emission from Small Solar System Bodies with the Fermi Large Area Telescope Data [PDF]
All known small solar system bodies have diameters between a few meters and a few thousands of kilometers. Based on the collisional evolution of solar system bodies, a larger number of asteroids with diameters down to ∼2 m is thought to exist.

Small solar system bodies as granular systems [PDF]
Asteroids and other Small Solar System Bodies (SSSBs) are currently of great scientific and even industrial interest. Asteroids exist as the permanent record of the formation of the Solar System and therefore hold many clues to its understanding as a ...

Small Solar System Bodies as granular media [PDF]
Asteroids and other Small Solar System Bodies (SSSBs) are of high general and scientific interest in many aspects. The origin, formation, and evolution of our Solar System (and other planetary systems) can be better understood by analysing the constitution and physical properties of small bodies in the Solar System.

Performing Automated, High-Speed Photometry on Occulting, Small Outer Solar System Bodies
Monitoring stellar occultations provides a powerful means to measure the shapes and sizes of small Solar System bodies, but produces large quantities of image data which can be laborious to analyse.

Water in small bodies of the Solar System [PDF]
AbstractWater in form of ice or vapour is observed in comets, transneptunian objects and icy satellites formed in the outer regions of the Solar System, as well as in objects orbiting in the inner Solar System, such as dwarf planet Ceres. I will present an overview of the water content and properties in these objects and the implications in terms of ...

Observations of Small Solar System Bodies with GAIA [PDF]
The ESA space astrometry mission has a great potential of observation and discovery on the solar system objects. GAIA is due for launch in 2010 and the survey mission will last five years. In addition to accurate astrometry of about 1 billion stars, the mission will survey all solar system objects brighter than 20th magnitude, in astrometry and with ...

Small Spacecraft Solar Sailing for Small Solar System Body Multiple Rendezvous and Landing [PDF]
Physical interaction with small solar system bodies (SSSB) is the next step in planetary science, planetary in-situ resource utilization (ISRU), and planetary defense (PD). It requires a broader understanding of the surface properties of the target objects, with particular interest focused on those near Earth.
