Complex craters : Relationship of rings to impact conditions stratigraphy and
One of the key issues associated with the understanding of large scale impacts is how the observable complex crater structural features (e.g., central peaks and pits, flat floors, ring shaped ridges and depressions, tratigraphic modifications, and faults) relate to the impactor's parameters (e.g., radius, velocity, and density) and the nonobservable transient crater measures (e.g., depth of pen...

متن کاملImpact craters on Titan
Five certain impact craters and 44 additional nearly certain and probable ones have been identified on the 22% of Titan’s surface imaged by Cassini’s high-resolution radar through December 2007. The certain craters have morphologies similar to impact craters on rocky planets, as well as two with radar bright, jagged rims. The less certain craters often appear to be eroded versions of the certai...
متن کاملA Catalog of Impact Craters on Ganymede
Introduction: Previous crater catalogs for Ganymede were based on Voyager analysis but Galileo data provides improved resolutions in the areas where it covered the moon and also helped fill in regions not imaged or imaged poorly by Voyager. Voyager and Galileo images combine to reveal the diversity of impact craters on this icy Jovian satellite. Previous studies cataloged the interior morpholog...
