Scientific paper

Experimental impact studies were undertaken. Ejecta velocity distributions and related results from regolith targets were studied. The velocity distributions, energy partitioning, and related properties from 14 impacts at speeds 5 to 2321 m/s in vacuo into regolith-like fine powders were derived. Data are analyzed on: velocity and mass distributions as a function of azimuth around the crater during oblique impacts catastrophic disruption of spherical targets of variable strength, and catastrophic disruption of irregular-shaped natural rock targets and artificial granular aggregate targets.
