Research on impact geology, geophysics, petrology, and impact cratering
Prof. Simón and geologists from the University of Zaragoza: Azuara, the Pelarda Fm. ejecta, the Revista de la Sociedad Geológica de España, and the manipulation of science a commentary article As we recently announced here, we are now publishing our detailed commentary on the unspeakable article by the geologists from the University of Zaragoza Continue reading "Manipulation of science in impact…
one of the world s most intriguing meteorite impact ejecta deposits. Spanish geologists, mainly from the University of Zaragoza, have recently continued what they have been doing for the past two to three decades: denying the existence of the 40-km-diameter Azuara impact and the Pelarda Formation—a prominent ejecta deposit formed as a result—and instead postulating a Continue reading "A new focus…
Click the videos! As far as we know, this is the first hydrocode modeling of a low-altitude touchdown airburst impact.

The crater Emmerting #004, Chiemgau airburst impact crater strewn field, as a high-resolution Digitale Terrain Model DGM 1. The wavy rim zone corresponds to the Kelvin-Helmholtz liquefaction impact model.

Click the article (translated from the German original) We present our findings on the Schlitzer Kauten in Hesse, Germany, revealing their complex structure as part of a larger impact feature field formed by a low-altitude touchdown airburst event. Our high-resolution digital terrain model DGM 1 has allowed us to rule out previous interpretations and connect Continue reading "New article: impact…
