High-Resolution Observations of Bright Boulders on Asteroid Ryugu: 1. Size Frequency Distribution and Morphology

Chiho Sugimoto, Eri Tatsumi, Yuichiro Cho +34

The near-Earth asteroid (162173) Ryugu displays a Cb-type average spectrum and a very low average normal albedo of 0.04. Although the majority of boulders on Ryugu have reflectance…

High-Resolution Observations of Bright Boulders on Asteroid Ryugu: 2. Spectral Properties

Chiho Sugimoto, Eri Tatsumi, Yuichiro Cho +34

Many small boulders with reflectance values higher than 1.5 times the average reflectance have been found on the near-Earth asteroid 162173 Ryugu. Based on their visible wavelength…

Using artificial neural networks to improve photometric modeling in airless bodies

J. L. Rizos, A. Asensio-Ramos, D. R. Golish +6

Relevant information about physical properties of the surface of airless bodies such as porosity, particle size, or roughness can be inferred knowing the dependence of the brightne…

Characterization of Exogenic Boulders on Near-Earth Asteroid (101955) Bennu from OSIRIS-REx Color Images

Lucille Le Corre, Vishnu Reddy, William F. Bottke +10

A small number of anomalously bright boulders on the near-Earth, rubble-pile asteroid (101955) Bennu were recently identified as eucritic material originating from asteroid (4) Ves…

Developing a Method to Determine Electrical Conductivity in Meteoritic Materials with Applications to Induction Heating Theory (2008 Student Thesis)

Daniella N. DellaGiustina

Magnetic induction was first proposed as a planetary heating mechanism by Sonett and Colburn in 1968, in recent years this theory has lost favor as a plausible source of heating in…
