Abstract:

In-flight of crater ejecta are summarized for the MIDDLE GUST test series. Observed distributions tend to support power law distribution currently used in models when the latter are filtered by gravitational and acrodynamic effects. The feasibility of obtaining data on ejecta dynamics to correlate with cratering calculations is reviewed. Author
