Hypervelocity Impact Energy Loss and Track Shape in Aerogels: Theory and ExperimentWe have developed and tested a theoretical model of impact cratering in aerogels that derives the impact crater dimensions directly from the energy and momentum deposition of the projectile. In this paper, our work is outlined.
