Anticipating the DART impact: Orbit estimation of Dimorphos using a simplified model

Shantanu P. Naidu, Steven R. Chesley, Davide Farnocchia +5

We used the times of occultations and eclipses between the components of the 65803 Didymos binary system observed in its lightcurves from 2003-2021 to estimate the orbital paramete…

Isolating the mechanisms for asteroid surface refreshing

F. E. DeMeo, M. Marsset, D. Polishook +10

Evidence is seen for young, fresh surfaces among Near-Earth and Main-Belt asteroids even though space-weathering timescales are shorter than the age of the surfaces. A number of me…

Ultraviolet Spectroscopy of Lucy Mission Targets with the Hubble Space Telescope

Oriel A. Humes, Cristina A. Thomas, Joshua P. Emery +1

The recently launched Lucy mission aims to understand the dynamical history of the Solar System by examining the Jupiter Trojans, a population of primitive asteroids co-orbital wit…

Connecting Asteroids and Meteorites with visible and near-infrared spectroscopy

Francesca E. DeMeo, Brian J. Burt, Michaël Marsset +12

We identify spectral similarities between asteroids and meteorites. We identify spectral matches between 500 asteroid spectra and over 1,000 samples of RELAB meteorite spectra over…

The debiased compositional distribution of MITHNEOS: Global match between the near-Earth and main-belt asteroid populations and excess of D-type Near-Earth Objects

Michaël Marsset, Francesca E. DeMeo, Brian Burt +10

We report 491 new near-infrared spectroscopic measurements of 420 near-Earth objects (NEOs) collected on the NASA InfraRed Telescope Facility (IRTF) as part of the MIT-Hawaii NEO S…
