Momentum transfer efficiency and the direction of the direction of the ejecta momentum vector. Panel a: momentum transfer efficiency, β, for different boulder mass fractions. Panel b: angle between the surface normal and the ejecta momentum vector, α. The shaded area denotes the loose packing regime. The horizontal green band shows the momentum enhancement from equivalent impacts on a homogeneous, matrix-only target.
