Photometric Properties of Ceres from Telescopic Observations using Dawn Framing Camera Color Filters
Vishnu Reddy, Jian-Yang Li, Bruce L. Gary +7
The dwarf planet Ceres is likely differentiated similar to the terrestrial planets but with a water/ice dominated mantle and an aqueously altered crust. Detailed modeling of Ceres'…
Spectral calibration for deriving surface mineralogy of Asteroid (25143) Itokawa from Hayabusa Near-Infrared Spectrometer (NIRS) Data
Megha Bhatt, Vishnu Reddy, Lucille Le Corre +6
We present spectral calibration equations for determining mafic silicate composition of near-Earth asteroid (25143) Itokawa from visible/near-infrared spectra measured using the Ne…
Asteroids and Comets
Yanga R. Fernandez, Jian-Yang Li, Ellen S. Howell +1
Asteroids and comets are remnants from the era of Solar System formation over 4.5 billion years ago, and therefore allow us to address two fundamental questions in astronomy: what…
The pre-perihelion activity of dynamically new comet C/2013 A1 (Siding Spring) and its close encounter with Mars
Dennis Bodewits, Michael S. P. Kelley, Jian-Yang Li +2
We used the UltraViolet-Optical Telescope on board Swift to systematically follow the dynamically new comet C/2013 A1 (Siding Spring) on its approach to the Sun. The comet was obse…
