New Candidates for Organic-rich Regions on Ceres
J. L. Rizos, J. M. Sunshine, R. T. Daly +7
We explore the spatial distribution of organics on Ceres using the visible and near-infrared data collected by the Dawn mission. We employ a spectral mixture analysis (SMA) approac…
Spectrophotometric Modeling and Mapping of Ceres
Jian-Yang Li, Stefan E. Schröder, Stefano Mottola +8
We report a comprehensive analysis of the global spectrophotometric properties of Ceres using Dawn Framing Camera images collected from April to June 2015 during the RC3 and Survey…
Spectral properties and geology of bright and dark material on dwarf planet Ceres
G. Thangjam, A. Nathues, T. Platz +5
Variations and spatial distributions of bright and dark material on dwarf planet Ceres play a key role in understanding the processes that have led to its present surface compositi…
CASTAway: An Asteroid Main Belt Tour and Survey
N. E. Bowles, C. Snodgrass, A Gibbings +42
CASTAway is a mission concept to explore our Solar System's main asteroid belt. Asteroids and comets provide a window into the formation and evolution of our Solar System and the c…
Haze at Occator crater on dwarf planet Ceres
G. Thangjam, M. Hoffmann, A. Nathues +2
A diurnal varying haze layer at the bright spots of Occator on dwarf planet Ceres has been reported from images of the Dawn Framing Camera. This finding is supported by ground-base…
Surface Albedo and Spectral Variability of Ceres
Jian-Yang Li, Vishnu Reddy, Andreas Nathues +21
Previous observations suggested that Ceres has active but possibly sporadic water outgassing, and possibly varying spectral characteristics in a time scale of months. We used all a…
