Caption: Figure 8.

Asteroid geometry upon the first major fragmentation event (top) and the later debris cloud (bottom) for the fully intact (left) (7.682 and 1.128 km from surface) and impact-processed (right) (26.07 and 19.52 km from the surface) cases of the 3D airburst. The asteroid is visualized as the trace of the damage tensor, and the debris cloud is opaque.
