1 lis 2021 · This paper models a hypothetical Apophis asteroid impact on an chosen deep ocean point on the globe. To assess the potential vulnerabilities of an exposed coast population, the impact effects were assessed as a function of the distance to the asteroid’s impact point as well as altitude for the tsunami case.

1 sie 2024 · Simulations suggest effective mitigation for an Apophis-sized threat (350 m diameter) via disruption into 50,000 fragments with a 30 day intercept; for a Bennu-sized threat (500 m), we find that 100,000 fragments with a 60 day intercept is feasible.
The tsunami is undoubtedly the most far-reaching and threatening impact effect from an asteroid impact on the ocean. This paper models a hypothetical Apophis asteroid impact on an chosen deep ocean point on the globe.
13 lis 2021 · The energy of the particle that was ejected is shown in Fig. 14(a); observe that near the closest encounter with the Earth the orbital energy increases to approximately 0.0025 m 2 s −2 and after the encounter, it decreases to 0.0005 m 2 s −2 until the end of the simulation.
13 kwi 2022 · We treated the near-Earth asteroid (99942) Apophis as a newly discovered object during its 2020-2021 close-approach as part of a mock planetary defense exercise.
