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…

Development of a multispectral stereo-camera system comparable to Hayabusa2 Optical Navigation Camera (ONC-T) for observing samples returned from asteroid (162173) Ryugu

Yuichiro Cho, Koki Yumoto, Yuna Yabe +10

Hayabusa2 collected 5.4 g of samples from the asteroid (162173) Ryugu and brought them back to Earth. Obtaining multiband images of these samples with the spectral bands comparable…
