The azimuthal distribution of ejecta mass from oblique impacts into sand
AC Quillen, S Doran - arXiv preprint arXiv:2404.16677, 2024 - arxiv.org
We measure ejecta mass as a function of azimuthal and impact angle for 104 m/s oblique
impacts into sand. We find that the ejecta mass distribution is strongly sensitive to azimuthal …
