Prospects for Mercury Observations with the BepiColombo Laser Altimeter (BELA): Implications for Estimating Surface Roughness from Laser Altimetry
Gaku Nishiyama, Alexander Stark, Christian Hüttig +12
Surface reflectance and roughness are key to understanding Mercury's geologic evolution. The BepiColombo Laser Altimeter (BELA) will measure these properties alongside topography,…
Rotational effect as the possible cause of the east-west asymmetric crater rims on Ryugu observed by LIDAR data
Naoyuki Hirata, Noriyuki Namiki, Fumi Yoshida +13
Asteroid 162173 Ryugu is a rubble-pile asteroid, whose top-shape is compatible with models of deformation by spin up. Rims of major craters on Ryugu have an east-west asymmetric pr…
Inversion angle of phase-polarization curve of near-Earth asteroid (3200) Phaethon
Yoshiharu Shinnaka, Toshihiro Kasuga, Reiko Furusho +5
The linear polarization degree (referred to the scattering plane, P_r) as a function of the solar phase angle, α, of solar system objects is a good diagnostic to understand the sca…
Science Objectives of the Ganymede Laser Altimeter (GALA) for the JUICE Mission
Jun Kimura, Hauke Hussmann, Shunichi Kamata +11
Laser altimetry is a powerful tool for addressing the major objectives of planetary physics and geodesy, and have been applied in planetary explorations of the Moon, Mars, Mercury,…
