On the Mass Distribution of Fragments of an Asteroid Disrupted in the Earth’s Atmosphere

To model the interaction with the atmosphere of fragments of a disrupted asteroid, which move independently of each other, it is necessary to know their mass distribution. In this regard, an analogy is drawn with fragmentation in high-speed impact experiments performed to simulate the disruption of...
