Extended Data Fig. 2: Trends in d/D with distance for other large craters (> 2 km) on Eros.

From: Seismic resurfacing of 433 Eros indicative of a highly dissipative interior for large near-Earth asteroids

Extended Data Fig. 2

The red curve in each panel shows the moving average (median) of the grey circles. The grey circles in each panel represent the mean d/D ± 1 standard deviation of craters. The number of profiles used to calculate the standard deviation in d/D ranges from 3 to 8. The vertical black dashed line marks a distance of one radius from the reference crater. Unlike Shoemaker crater (Fig. 1a), no trends between d/D and distance to the other craters are apparent. a, d/D of all craters as a function of distance to Himeros crater. b, d/D of all craters as a function of distance to Psyche crater. c–j, d/D of craters with D > 500 m, as a function of distance to c, Himeros crater, d, Psyche crater, e, Selene crater, f, Narcissus crater, g, Valentine crater, h, Tutanekai crater, i, Eurydice crater, and j, Jahan crater.
