The Ch-class asteroids: Connecting a visible taxonomic class to a 3-μm band shape
Andrew S. Rivkin, Cristina A. Thomas, Ellen S. Howell +1
Asteroids belonging to the Ch spectral taxonomic class are defined by the presence of an absorption near 0.7 μm, which is interpreted as due to Fe-bearing phyllosilicates. Phyllosi…
Asteroids and the James Webb Space Telescope
Andrew S. Rivkin, Franck Marchis, John A. Stansberry +3
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) provides the opportunity for ground-breaking observations of asteroids. It covers wavelength regions that are unavailable from the ground, and…
Observing Near-Earth Objects with the James Webb Space Telescope
Cristina A. Thomas, Paul Abell, Julie Castillo-Rogez +6
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has the potential to enhance our understanding of near-Earth objects (NEOs). We present results of investigations into the observability of NE…
The James Webb Space Telescopes plan for operations and instrument capabilities for observations in the Solar System
Stefanie N. Milam, John A. Stansberry, George Sonneborn +1
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is optimized for observations in the near and mid infrared and will provide essential observations for targets that cannot be conducted from t…
The Physical Characterization of the Potentially-Hazardous Asteroid 2004 BL86: A Fragment of a Differentiated Asteroid
Vishnu Reddy, Bruce L. Gary, Juan A. Sanchez +11
The physical characterization of potentially hazardous asteroids (PHAs) is important for impact hazard assessment and evaluating mitigation options. Close flybys of PHAs provide an…
Mineralogy and Surface Composition of Asteroids
Vishnu Reddy, Tasha L. Dunn, Cristina A. Thomas +2
Methods to constrain the surface mineralogy of asteroids have seen considerable development during the last decade with advancement in laboratory spectral calibrations and validati…
