Thats an interesting 'take' on someone elses work!!! Polishook is indeed an author on the work that was recently published in Nature ("Formation of asteroid pairs by rotational fussion"; http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=65193) but Brosch wasn't......

It seems Dr. Noah Brosch is Polishook's supervisor:
So, is it Brosch who's come to the conclusion (of proof), or is he saying 'researchers' have ?
Can't really tell from a journo's article. Also can't follow up on the papers (no links in this article, pointing to them).
Cheers & Rgds

PS:
Here's Polishook's (http://wise-obs.tau.ac.il/~david/) page> Here's his publications (http://wise-obs.tau.ac.il/~david/David%20Polishook%20-%20Publications.html).
His contact details are on his web page, also.

Petr always lists his authors in priority order of input. I just hate it when I see (implied in this case, most likely the journo making some assumptions) someone latching onto someone elses work.
Its no biggie - it just urks me.

He's co-published (http://adsabs.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/nph-abs_connect?db_key=AST&db_key=PRE&qform=AST&arxiv_sel=astro-ph&%20sim_query=YES&ned_query=YES&adsobj_query=YES&author=Polishook&jou_pick=ALL&article_sel=YES&data_and=ALL&group_and=ALL&version=1) quite a lot with Brosch ...
This paper seems to be his latest with him:
Not sure if that's the one underpinning the 'Nature' publication article (in the original post).

Do you have a link for that paper? It sounds interesting.

David;
I've looked everywhere, .. sorry, I can't find it. It may be undergoing peer review at the moment. I don't think they've published it yet in Icarus.
Might have to wait for it.
Cheers
