Initial Orbit Determination and Event Reconstruction From Estimation of Particle Trajectories About (101955) Bennu

Abstract The OSIRIS‐REx mission has observed multiple instances of particles being ejected from the surface of near‐Earth asteroid (101955) Bennu. The ability to quickly identify the particle trajectories and origins is necessary following a particle ejection event. Using proven initial orbit determ...
