Three-dimensional Particle-in-cell Simulations of the Solar Wind Interaction with Asteroid 2016 HO3
The recently discovered asteroid 2016 HO _3 is the most stable quasi-satellite of our Earth. Several missions to 2016 HO _3 have been proposed, including the Tianwen-2 mission of China. Here we study the solar wind interaction with 2016 HO _3 with three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations. It i...
