The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Characterizing and navigating small bodies with imaging data (2006, methodology): “The NEAR Laser Ranger shape model (Zuber et al. 2000; Miller et al. 2002) produced significant anomalies (Fig.”
Report of the IAU Working Group on Cartographic Coordinates and Rotational Elements: 2009 (2011, result): “This definition is consistent with the sense of increasing longitude used for Eros by Miller et al. (2002), but is inconsistent with the sense of increasing longitude used for Eros by Thomas et al. (2002). For each such body, the positive pole of rotation is selected as the maximum or minimum moment”
Scaling forces to asteroid surfaces: The role of cohesion (2010, background): “…we provide detailed descriptions of the relevant forces that act on particles and grains in the asteroid environment, we first review the evidence that has been drawn together recently which indicates that asteroids are dominated by granular structures, either globally or at least locally.”
The YORP effect with finite thermal conductivity (2004, methodology): “To check a possibility of the YORP detection we co puted the corresponding orbit-averaged torque compon for the actual Eros’ orbit and its spin state (e.g.,Miller et al., 2002).”
