摘要:

2019年8月7日,在木星上观察到持续$\sim1$ s的撞击闪光。对这一事件的录像进行了分析,以获得光变曲线,并确定能量释放和初始质量。我们发现,撞击物释放的总能量$96-151$千吨TNT,对应于一个初始质量之间的$190-260$公吨与直径之间的$4-10$米。我们开发了一个碎片模型来模拟物体的大气破裂并再现光变曲线。我们模拟了三种不同的材料:彗星,石质和金属的速度为$60$,$65 $和$70$公里/秒,以确定撞击物体的材料组成。速度较慢的情况下,最好是由一个强大的,金属物体,而速度较快的情况下,需要一个较弱的材料。

英文摘要:

On 7th August 2019, an impact flash lasting $\sim1$s was observed on Jupiter. The video of this event was analysed to obtain the lightcurve and determine the energy release and initial mass. We find that the impactor released a total energy of $96-151$ kilotons of TNT, corresponding to an initial mass between $190-260$ metric tonnes with a diameter between $4-10$m. We developed a fragmentation model to simulate the atmospheric breakup of the object and reproduce the lightcurve. We model three different materials: cometary, stony and metallic at speeds of $60$, $65 $ and $70$ km/s to determine the material makeup of the impacting object. The slower cases are best fit by a strong, metallic object while the faster cases require a weaker material.
