Shapes of asteroids compared with fragments from hypervelocity impact experiments
Light-curve observations have shown that most asteroids are non-axially symmetrical in shape, probably as a result of fragmentation undergone by objects with negligible gravitational binding1. Some earlier labora...

Radiofrequency emissions observed during macroscopic hypervelocity impact experiments
Banded low-frequency radiofrequency (r.f.) signals, very low frequency propagation and light emission have been recorded to precede, accompany and follow some large earthquakes1–3, and mechanisms to account for t...
