Numerical simulations of collisional disruption of rotating gravitational aggregates:Dependence on material properties
Asteroids Planetesimals Dynamics N-body simulations Collisional physics
2015/12/25
Our knowledge of the strengths of small bodies in the Solar System is limited by our poor understanding of their internal structures, and this, in turn, clouds our understanding of the formation and e...
