Phase reddening on asteroid Bennu from visible and near-infrared spectroscopy
S. Fornasier, P. H. Hasselmann, J. D. P Deshapriya +10
The NASA mission OSIRIS-REx has been observing near-Earth asteroid (101955) Bennu in close proximity since December 2018. In this work, we investigate spectral phase reddening -- t…
Basalt or not? Near-infrared spectra, surface mineralogical estimates, and meteorite analogs for 33 Vp-type asteroids
Paul S. Hardersen, Vishnu Reddy, Edward Cloutis +5
Investigations of the main asteroid belt and efforts to constrain that population's physical characteristics involve the daunting task of studying hundreds of thousands of small bo…
Ground-based Characterization of Hayabusa2 Mission Target Asteroid 162173 Ryugu: Constraining Mineralogical Composition in Preparation for Spacecraft Operations
Lucille Le Corre, Juan A. Sanchez, Vishnu Reddy +7
Asteroids that are targets of spacecraft missions are interesting because they present us with an opportunity to validate ground-based spectral observations. One such object is nea…
Composition of Jupiter irregular satellites sheds light on their origin
M. Bhatt, V. Reddy, K. Schindler +4
Irregular satellites of Jupiter with their highly eccentric, inclined and distant orbits suggest that their capture took place just before the giant planet migration. We aim to imp…
Link between the Potentially Hazardous Asteroid (86039) 1999 NC43 and the Chelyabinsk meteoroid tenuous
Vishnu Reddy, David Vokrouhlický, William F. Bottke +15
We explored the statistical and compositional link between Chelyabinsk meteoroid and potentially hazardous asteroid (86039) 1999 NC43 to investigate their proposed relation propose…
Exploring Exogenic Sources for the Olivine on Asteroid (4) Vesta
Lucille Le Corre, Vishnu Reddy, Juan A. Sanchez +5
The detection of olivine on Vesta is interesting because it may provide critical insights into planetary differentiation early in our Solar System's history. Ground-based and Hubbl…
