Reflection, emission, and polarization properties of surfaces made of hyperfine grains, and implications for the nature of primitive small bodies
Robin Sultana, Olivier Poch, Pierre Beck +8
There are various indications that the most primitive small bodies (P, D-type asteroids, comets) have surfaces made of intimate mixtures of opaque minerals and other components (si…
Large-scale cryovolcanic resurfacing on Pluto
Kelsi N. Singer, Oliver L. White, Bernard Schmitt +22
The New Horizons spacecraft returned images and compositional data showing that terrains on Pluto span a variety of ages, ranging from relatively ancient, heavily cratered areas to…
Water abundance at the surface of C-complex main-belt asteroids
Pierre Beck, Jolantha Eschrig, Sandra Potin +4
Recently published space-based observations of main-belt asteroids with the AKARI telescope provide a full description of the 3 μm band, related to the presence of OH bearing miner…
Visible and near-infrared reflectance of hyperfine and hyperporous particulate surfaces
Robin Sultana, Olivier Poch, Pierre Beck +2
The composition of Solar System surfaces can be inferred through reflectance and emission spectroscopy, by comparing these observations to laboratory measurements and radiative tra…
Mineralogy, chemistry and composition of organic compounds in the fresh carbonaceous chondrite Mukundpura: CM1 or CM2?
S. Potin, P. Beck, L. Bonal +7
We present here several laboratory analyses performed on the freshly fallen Mukundpura CM chondrite. Results of infrared transmission spectroscopy, thermogravimetry analysis and re…
Low-phase spectral reflectance and equivalent geometric albedo of meteorites powders
Pierre Beck, Bernard Schmitt, Sandra Potin +2
The reflectance of a particulate surface depends on the phase angle at which it is observed. This is true for laboratory measurements on powders of natural materials as well as rem…
