Particle deposition on the saturnian satellites from ephemeral cryovolcanism on Enceladus
Naoyuki Hirata, Hideaki Miyamoto, Adam P. Showman
The geologically active south pole of Enceladus generates a plume of micron-sized particles, which likely form Saturn's tenuous E-ring extending from the orbit of Mimas to Titan. I…
Rayed craters on Dione: Implication for the dominant surface alteration process
Naoyuki Hirata, Hideaki Miyamoto
From recently-acquired, high-resolution images obtained by the Cassini spacecraft, we examine the patterns and spatial distributions of rayed craters on Dione. We identify 29 rayed…
The Western Bulge of 162173 Ryugu Formed as a Result of a Rotationally Driven Deformation Process
Masatoshi Hirabayashi, Eri Tatsumi, Hideaki Miyamoto +26
162173 Ryugu, the target of Hayabusa2, has a round shape with an equatorial ridge, which is known as a spinning top-shape. A strong centrifugal force is a likely contributor to Ryu…
Asteroid Ryugu Before the Hayabusa2 Encounter
Koji Wada, Matthias Grott, Patrick Michel +31
Asteroid (162173) Ryugu is the target object of Hayabusa2, an asteroid exploration and sample return mission led by Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA). Ground-based observat…
Asteroid Surface Geophysics
Naomi Murdoch, Paul Sanchez, Stephen R. Schwartz +1
The regolith-covered surfaces of asteroids preserve records of geophysical processes that have occurred both at their surfaces and sometimes also in their interiors. As a result of…
Search for a correlation between giant radio pulses and hard X-ray emissions in the Crab pulsar
Ryo Mikami, Toshio Terasawa, Shota Kisaka +12
We present the results of the search for a correlation between giant radio pulses (GRPs) at 1.4 GHz and hard X-rays at 15-75 keV from the Crab pulsar. We made simultaneous ground a…
