Spin vectors in the Koronis family: V. Resolving the ambiguous rotation period of (3032) Evans

Stephen M. Slivan, Francis P. Wilkin, Claire McLellan-Cassivi +1

A sidereal rotation counting approach is demonstrated by resolving an ambiguity in the synodic rotation period of Koronis family member (3032) Evans, whose rotation lightcurves' fe…

Spin vectors in the Koronis family: IV. Completing the sample of its largest members after 35 years of study

Stephen M. Slivan, Matthew Hosek, Max Kurzner +17

An observational study of Koronis family members' spin properties was undertaken with two primary objectives: to reduce selection biases for object rotation period and lightcurve a…

Isolating the mechanisms for asteroid surface refreshing

F. E. DeMeo, M. Marsset, D. Polishook +10

Evidence is seen for young, fresh surfaces among Near-Earth and Main-Belt asteroids even though space-weathering timescales are shorter than the age of the surfaces. A number of me…

Connecting Asteroids and Meteorites with visible and near-infrared spectroscopy

Francesca E. DeMeo, Brian J. Burt, Michaël Marsset +12

We identify spectral similarities between asteroids and meteorites. We identify spectral matches between 500 asteroid spectra and over 1,000 samples of RELAB meteorite spectra over…

The debiased compositional distribution of MITHNEOS: Global match between the near-Earth and main-belt asteroid populations and excess of D-type Near-Earth Objects

Michaël Marsset, Francesca E. DeMeo, Brian Burt +10

We report 491 new near-infrared spectroscopic measurements of 420 near-Earth objects (NEOs) collected on the NASA InfraRed Telescope Facility (IRTF) as part of the MIT-Hawaii NEO S…

Twenty years of SpeX: Accuracy limits of spectral slope measurements in asteroid spectroscopy

Michael Marsset, Francesca E. DeMeo, Richard P. Binzel +8

We examined two decades of SpeX/NASA Infrared Telescope Facility observations from the Small Main-Belt Asteroid Spectroscopic Survey (SMASS) and the MIT-Hawaii Near-Earth Object Sp…
