VELOCITY-DEPENDENT CATASTROPHIC DISRUPTION CRITERIA FOR PLANETESIMALS (2009, background): “Meanwhile, we suggest that the samples of sintered glass beads are the best laboratory analog for gravitational rubble piles (e.g., nearEarth asteroid Itokawa; Fujiwara et al. 2006).”
OCAMS: The OSIRIS-REx Camera Suite (2017, background): “…should not require such fast cameras for any “normal” body with even twice the reflectance and surfaced with a regolith constructed from relatively smooth cobbles and pebbles (e.g., Itokawa) (Fujiwara et al. 2006; Saito et al. 2006; Yano et al. 2006; Miyamoto et al. 2007; Marshall and Rizk 2015).”
The strength of regolith and rubble pile asteroids (2013, background): “0 g/cm(3) can be computed, slightly different than that computed in [10, 1].”
Dynamics of rotationally fissioned asteroids: Source of observed small asteroid systems (2011, background): “2, which has no obvious impact craters and appears as collection of shattered fragments of different size scales (Fujiwara et al., 2006).”
Density of asteroids (2012, methodology): “These frequency shifts are imposed by the gravitational perturbation and are related to the mass of the asteroid (Yeomans et al., 1997, 2000; Fujiwara et al., 2006; P¨atzold et al., 2011).”
Rubble Pile Asteroids (2018, methodology): “However, images of asteroid Itokawa and inferences from thermal inertia data find that surfaces of rubble piles are covered with a wide range of much smaller grain sizes (Fujiwara et al. 2006, Delbo et al. 2015).”
PRELIMINARY RESULTS FROM NEOWISE: AN ENHANCEMENT TO THE WIDE-FIELD INFRARED SURVEY EXPLORER FOR SOLAR SYSTEM SCIENCE (2011, background): “…(the Near-Earth Asteroid Rendevous mission, Giotto, Galileo, Deep Space 1, Deep Impact, Hyabusa, Dawn, Stardust, Rosetta Cheng 2002; Oberst et al. 2001; Reinhard 1986; Thomas et al. 1994; A’Hearn et al. 2005; Fujiwara et al. 2006; Russel et al. 2007; Brownlee et al. 2003; Barucci et al. 2005).”
Boulder size and shape distributions on asteroid Ryugu (2019, background): “On the other hand, most boulders on relatively small asteroids, such as Itokawa (0.535×0.294×0.209 km; Fujiwara et al., 2006), Bennu (0.”
