Significantly high polarization degree of the very low-albedo asteroid (152679) 1998 KU
Daisuke Kuroda, Masateru Ishiguro, Makoto Watanabe +7
We present a unique and significant polarimetric result regarding the near-Earth asteroid (152679) 1998 KU , which has a very low geometric albedo. From our observatio…
Increase in cratering efficiency with target curvature in strength-controlled craters
Ayako I. Suzuki, Chisato Okamoto, Kosuke Kurosawa +3
Impact-cratering processes on small bodies are thought to be mainly controlled by the local material strength because of their low surface gravity, and craters that are as large as…
Follow-up observations for the Asteroid Catalog using AKARI Spectroscopic Observations
Sunao Hasegawa, Daisuke Kuroda, Kenshi Yanagisawa +1
In the 1-2.5 micron range, spectroscopic observations are made on the AcuA-spec asteroids, whose spectra were obtained in a continuous covered mode between 2.5-5.0 micron by AKARI.…
Polarimetric Study of Near-Earth Asteroid (1566) Icarus
Masateru Ishiguro, Daisuke Kuroda, Makoto Watanabe +13
We conducted a polarimetric observation of the fast-rotating near-Earth asteroid (1566) Icarus at large phase (Sun-asteroid-observer's) angles = 57 deg--141deg around the 2015 s…
