Simulating Itokawa cratering Here, craters reach a barely detectable crater density equilibrium,
displaying the severe paucity of all craters first described in Fujiwara et al. (Science, 2006) and Michel et al. (Icarus, 2010), despite having an impactor population rich in small impactors. The thin, dotted, diagonal line marks the value corresponding to a single crater in each size bin on an R-plot. Jim Richardson
