Examples of how the shape and bulk density influences the dif ferent state variables. (a) The potential and moment of inertia around the angular momentum axis (in this case assumed to be the z-axis) for different asteroids and two different assumed bulk densities. (b–e) The rubble pile models of some of the asteroids used to calculate the state variable values.
