Collisional Processes in the Solar System [E-Book] / edited by Mikhail Ya. Marov, Hans Rickman.
The exploration of our Solar System is rapidly growing in importance as a scientific discipline. During the last decades, great progress has been achieved as the result of space missions to planets and small bodies - as teroids and comets - and improved remote-sensing methods, as well as due to ref...
