The origin of the Martian moons revisited
P Rosenblatt - The Astronomy and Astrophysics Review, 2011 - Springer
The origin of the Martian moons, Phobos and Deimos, is still an open issue: either they are
asteroids captured by Mars or they formed in situ from a circum-Mars debris disk. The …

Dynamical evidence for Phobos and Deimos as remnants of a disrupted common progenitor
The origin of the Martian moons, Phobos and Deimos, remains elusive. While the
morphology and their cratered surfaces suggest an asteroidal origin,–, capture has been …

Constraints on Mimas' interior from Cassini ISS libration measurements
Like our Moon, the majority of the solar system's satellites are locked in a 1: 1 spin-orbit
resonance; on average, these satellites show the same face toward the planet at a constant …

Signature of Phobos' interior structure in its gravity field and libration
The interior of the Martian moon Phobos has not been precisely determined yet, in spite of
space missions sent at close distance to the body. The current measurements (imagery …
