• Formation of Phobos and Deimos via a giant impact (2015, methodology): “The observations discussed above makes a strong case that Phobos and Deimos formed via re-accretion, but this process requires the ejection of sufficient satellite-forming material into circumMars orbit, most likely via a giant impact (Craddock, 2011).”
• The composition of Mars (2019, background): “to et al., 2018) are keys to constrain further not only the origin of the Martian moons (Murchie et al., 2014), but also the composition of the Martian mantle, if Phobos has formed via giant impacts (Craddock, 2011; Citron et al., 2015; Hyodo et al., 2017; Canup and Salmon, 2018).
