Journal ArticleDOI

The Chicxulub Asteroid Impact and Mass Extinction at the Cretaceous-Paleogene Boundary

TL;DR: Records of the global stratigraphy across this boundary are synthesized to assess the proposed causes of the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary and conclude that the Chicxulub impact triggered the mass extinction.
Journal ArticleDOI

A strain-based porosity model for use in hydrocode simulations of impacts and implications for transient crater growth in porous targets

TL;DR: In this article, a new e-alpha model is proposed for dealing with porous compaction in numerical modeling of impact crater formation. But the model assumes that the compaction function depends upon volumetric strain rather than pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modeling damage and deformation in impact simulations

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the aspects of the behavior of brittle materials important for the accurate simulation of damage and deformation surrounding an impact event and the care required to interpret the results.
Journal ArticleDOI

Earth Impact Effects Program: A Web-based computer program for calculating the regional environmental consequences of a meteoroid impact on Earth

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a Web-based program for quickly estimating the regional environmental consequences of a comet or asteroid impact on Earth (www.lpl.arizona.edu/impacteffects).
Journal ArticleDOI

Initial results from the InSight mission on Mars

W. Bruce Banerdt, +76 more
- 24 Feb 2020 - 
TL;DR: For example, the first ten months of the InSight lander on Mars revealed a planet that is seismically active and provided information about the interior, surface and atmospheric workings of Mars as mentioned in this paper.
