[edit] Notes

Basalt is the default material for Bennu (Mat1= "basalt"), and T_user = 220 (temperature at which the inertia is defined).

[edit] Bennu Runs

Orbital parameters have already been processed for Bennu, and standard material properties of airless bodies are considered by default.

To run a Bennu case, set body = "Bennu".

out = krc(lat=0.,INERTIA=50.,T_user=220.,LKofT="T",body="Bennu",ls=0.)

By default, the temperature dependence of the thermal conductivity uses a Moon-like trend (k_style = "Moon").


[edit] Defining a Date

Seasons can be defined as Ls (ls), Julian Date (JD), and Gregorian Date (GD):

 OUT = krc(body="Bennu",lat=25.,ls=90.)

For a specific Gregorian Date, GD (currently ranging from 1990-Jan-01 to 2040-Jan-01), the format is ????-Mmm-DD, with Mmm:Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, May, Jun, Jul, Aug, Sep, Oct, Nov, Dec;

 OUT = krc(body="Bennu",lat=12.,GD="2010-Jan-05")

or a specific Julian Date JD:

 OUT = krc(body="Bennu",lat=12.,JD=2455201)

Note: the possibility to specify the date with GD is only currently available for Mars, the Moon, Bennu, and Europa.
