Uncertainties in physical properties of Itokawa-like asteroids widen constraints on their formation time

Abstract One of the outstanding questions in planetary science is to determine how the fundamental mechanical and physical properties of materials determine the thermal evolution of asteroids, and which properties have the greatest influence. We investigate the effects of uncertainty in the material...
