Equatorial grooves distribution on Ganymede: Length and self-similar clustering analysis

A. Lucchetti et al.

Summary: The study investigated the characteristics of grooves on Ganymede's equatorial region, revealing different distribution patterns indicating the presence of structures of varying lengths within the icy crust. The analysis suggested the existence of two different structure systems confined within specific mechanical crust layers, with the thickness of the penetrated icy shell ranging between 105 and 130 km. These findings support the hypothesis of grooves penetrating the brittle icy crust with interconnected faults underlying longer grooves potentially reaching the entire icy crust above the liquid ocean.

The Boulder Population of Asteroid 4 Vesta: Size-Frequency Distribution and Survival Time

Stefan E. Schroder et al.

Summary: Researchers identified and mapped boulders on Vesta's surface using images from the Low Altitude Mapping Orbit (LAMO). By analyzing the distribution and density of boulders, they estimated a maximum boulder lifetime of about 300 million years around craters with known ages. The study suggested that the size distribution of particles, including boulders, on small bodies like Vesta follows a Weibull distribution rather than a power law.
