Abstract: Roughly 100km diameter primitive bodies (today’s asteroids and TNOs; [1]) are thought to be the end product of so-called “primary accretion”. They dominated the initial mass function of planetesimals, and precipitated the onset of a subsequent stage, characterized by runaway gravitational effects, which proceeded onwards to planetary mass objects, some of which accreted massive gas envelopes. Asteroids are the parents of primitive meteorites; meteorite data suggest that asteroids initially fo…
