Gravitational perturbations correlated with the asteroid kinetic impact deflection technique

Abstract This paper presents the use of the kinetic impact technique to deflect asteroids that may present some risk of collision with Earth. Within the work to be developed here, we intend to evaluate in more detail the possibility to deflect the orbit of the asteroid 101955 Bennu by applying varia...
