Updated in-flight calibration of the Hayabusa2/NIRS3 spectrometer: new global near-infrared photometric properties of asteroid (162173) Ryugu
Antonin Wargnier, Eri Tatsumi, Koki Yumoto +10
The Near InfraRed Spectrometer (NIRS3) onboard Hayabusa2 observed asteroid (162173) Ryugu, searching especially for signatures of water-bearing minerals. However, during the missio…
Overview of Hayabusa2 extended mission's flyby of Near-Earth Asteroid (98943) Torifune
Masatoshi Hirabayashi, Masahiko Hayakawa, Yuya Mimasu +18
The Hayabusa2 extended mission, nicknamed Hayabusa2# (# is pronounced SHARP, which stands for the Small Hazardous Asteroid Reconnaissance Probe), is JAXA's small body explorer to c…
Heliocentric Distance Dependence of Zodiacal Light Observed by Hayabusa2#
Kohji Tsumura, Shuji Matsuura, Kei Sano +21
Zodiacal light (ZL) is sunlight scattered by interplanetary dust particles (IDPs) at optical wavelengths. The spatial distribution of IDPs in the Solar System may hold an important…
Characterization of the MASCOT landing area by Hayabusa2
Stefan Schröder, Naoya Sakatani, Rie Honda +26
Context. After landing on C-type asteroid Ryugu, MASCOT imaged brightly colored, submillimeter-sized inclusions in a small rock. Hayabusa2 successfully returned a sample of small p…
Hayabusa2 Extended Mission: New Voyage to Rendezvous with a Small Asteroid Rotating with a Short Period
M. Hirabayashi, Y. Mimasu, N. Sakatani +41
Hayabusa2 is the Japanese Asteroid Return Mission and targeted the carbonaceous asteroid Ryugu, conducted by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA). The goal of this mission…
Updated Inflight Calibration of Hayabusa2's Optical Navigation Camera (ONC) for Scientific Observations during the Cruise Phase
Eri Tatsumi, Toru Kouyama, Hidehiko Suzuki +17
The Optical Navigation Camera (ONC-T, ONC-W1, ONC-W2) onboard Hayabusa2 are also being used for scientific observations of the mission target, C-complex asteroid 162173 Ryugu. Scie…
Physical properties of near-Earth asteroids with a low delta-: Survey of target candidates for the Hayabusa2 mission
Sunao Hasegawa, Daisuke Kuroda, Kohei Kitazato +40
Sample return from the near-Earth asteroid known as 25143 Itokawa was conducted as part of the Hayabusa mission, with a large number of scientific findings being derived from the r…
Rotational Characterization of Hayabusa II Target Asteroid (162173) 1999 JU3
Nicholas Moskovitz, Shinsuke Abe, Kang-Shian Pan +9
The Japanese Space Agency's Hayabusa II mission is scheduled to rendezvous with and return a sample from the near-Earth asteroid (162173) 1999 JU3. Previous visible-wavelength spec…
Photometric Observations of 107P/Wilson-Harrington
Seitaro Urakawa, Shin-ichiro Okumura, Kota Nishiyama +14
We present lightcurve observations and multiband photometry for 107P/Wilson-Harrington using five small- and medium-sized telescopes. The lightcurve has shown a periodicity of 0.29…
