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…
Spectral evolution of dark asteroid surfaces induced by space weathering over a decade
Sunao Hasegawa, Francesca E. DeMeo, Michael Marsset +20
The surface of airless bodies like asteroids in the Solar System are known to be affected by space weathering. Experiments simulating space weathering are essential for studying th…
Searching for Binary Asteroids in Pan-STARRS1 Archival Images
James Ou, Christoph Baranec, Schelte J. Bus
We developed two different point spread function (PSF) analysis techniques for discovering wide separation binary asteroids in wide field surveys. We then applied these techniques…
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…
