TL;DR: This paper focuses on the science return of AIM, the current knowledge of its target from ground-based observations, and the instrumentation planned to get the necessary data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radar observations and a physical model of binary near-Earth asteroid 65803 Didymos, target of the DART mission
Shantanu P. Naidu,Lance A. M. Benner,Marina Brozovic,Michael C. Nolan,Steven J. Ostro,Jean-Luc Margot,Jon D. Giorgini,T. Hirabayashi,Daniel J. Scheeres,Petr Pravec,P. Scheirich,Christopher Magri,Joseph S. Jao +12 more
TL;DR: Cheng et al. as discussed by the authors used the radar data to estimate a 3D shape model and spin state for the primary, the secondary size and spin, the mutual orbit parameters, and the radar scattering properties of the binary system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Creep stability of the proposed AIDA mission target 65803 Didymos: I. Discrete cohesionless granular physics model
Yun Zhang,Yun Zhang,Derek C. Richardson,Olivier S. Barnouin,Clara Maurel,Patrick Michel,Stephen R. Schwartz,Ronald-Louis Ballouz,Lance A. M. Benner,Shantanu P. Naidu,Junfeng Li +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, a soft-sphere discrete element model (SSDEM) capable of simulating granular systems in quasi-static states is implemented and a quasistatic spin-up procedure is carried out.
Journal ArticleDOI
