Session ID#: 12458
Session Description:
This is a session of contributed and invited papers on the geophysics of satellites and small bodies. Research is progressing rapidly due to the stream of new spacecraft and Earth-based telescope data. Additionally, there is the exciting prospect of future missions to the Jovian system. Papers are welcomed on processes that affect the interiors of individual bodies as well as the surface expressions they produce. Included are the effects and chronology of internal heating (e.g., radioactivity, tidal dissipation), structural evolution (e.g., differentiation), tides, and other processes. These geophysical processes themselves are universal in their application and transcend the compartmentalization suggested by nomenclature such as “satellite”, “dwarf planet”, “asteroid”, “comet”, “KBO”, “TNO”, “parent body”, “planetesimal”, and now small exoplanets.
