Effects of Earth encounters on the physical properties of near-earth objects
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)The effects of Earth encounters on the physical properties of near-Earth objects (NEOs) have been shown to be significant factors in their evolution. Previous studies have examined the effects of these encounters on ... -
Examining the evidence for Chthonian planets : superdense exposed exoplanet cores
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)Planetary cores are of interest because they provide insight into the internal dynamics and composition of planets. By using mass-radius relationship compositional analysis, this work originally set out to look for evidence ... -
