Orbital Capture of Ejecta into Periodic Orbits around Binary Asteroid (65803) Didymos

Orbital Capture of Ejecta into Periodic Orbits around Binary Asteroid (65803) Didymos

The successful impact of the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft on Dimorphos enabled the first-ever extensive observation of a postimpact ejecta tail from a binary asteroid system. Studying the ejecta can provide insights into impact physics and asteroid composition and inform future...
