Experimental Impact Craters in Aluminum Foils: Insights for Cometary Sample Return
Introduction: The aluminum foils wrapped around the sample tray assembly (STA) of the Stardust spacecraft will contain a record of both cometary and interstellar dust hypervelocity collisions in the form of craters [1-2]. While the primary goal of the cratering preliminary examination (PE) is to define the cometary particle flux [2], previous studies of exposed metallic foils in space have show...
متن کاملTof-sims Analysis of Residues of Projectiles Shot onto Stardust Aluminum
Introduction: The samples from the Stardust space probe will offer the first opportunity for analyzing cometary matter collected under controlled conditions together with contemporary interstellar dust particles [1, 2]. Moreover, Stardust is the first sample return mission ever that provides material from a known solar system object other than the moon. The primary goal after sample arrival is ...

متن کاملHYDROCODE SIMULATIONS OF AGGREGATE DUST PARTICLE IMPACTS ONTO STARDUST Al FOILS
Introduction: We have used the Ansys Inc. AUTODYN ® software [1] to hydrodynamically model small particle impacts into aluminium (Al) foil, under the conditions of the Stardust encounter with comet 81P/Wild 2 [2] (i.e., normal incidence, 6 km s -1 ). We compare results of impact models, based on carefully defined particle structures, with three-dimensional (3D) crater shapes reported from Stard...
