Observed SFDs of C-type asteroid families. The SFDs usually exhibit a steep slope q1 at sizes D ≳ 5 km and a shallow slope q2 at D ≲ 5 km. This break is often created in the course of collisonal evolution. An observational bias affects the SFDs at even smaller sizes (0.5-3 km), depending on the distance and albedo of the respective populations. Additionally, families of P, B and M types were studied (together with 4 of unknown taxonomical classification). -- astro-ph.EP

Source Regions of Carbonaceous Meteorites and NEOs

by Keith CowingJuly 3, 2024July 1, 2024

The present work aims to determine the source regions of carbonaceous chondrites (CM, CI, CO, CV, CK, CR, CH, CB, or C-ungrouped). We studied 38 individual asteroid families, including young […]
