Notes. Uncertainties correspond to 1σ values. We also highlight the bodies visited by spacecraft (*), that are members of a collisional family (F) or that possess one or two satellites (S). Apart from the three targets visited by a space mission (Ceres, Vesta and Lutetia), all reported values were derived in the present study.
Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.
Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.
Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
