Global-scale brittle plastic rheology at the cometesimals merging of comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko

Observations of comet nuclei indicate that the main constituent is a mix of ice and refractory materials characterized by high porosity (70–75%) and low bulk strength (10(−4)–10(−6) MPa); however, the nature and physical properties of these materials remain largely unknown. By combining surface insp...
