Bayesian analysis of Juno/JIRAM's NIR observations of Europa
Ishan Mishra, Nikole Lewis, Jonathan Lunine +4
Juno spacecraft's spectrometer JIRAM recently observed the moon Europa in the 2-5 μm wavelength region. Here we present analysis of the average spectrum of a set of observations ne…
Correction of the VIR-visible data set from the Dawn mission at Vesta
B. Rousseau, M. C De Sanctis, A. Raponi +7
This work describes the correction method applied to the dataset acquired at the asteroid (4) Vesta by the visible channel of the visible and infrared mapping spectrometer. The ris…
A probabilistic approach to determination of Ceres' average surface composition from Dawn VIR and GRaND data
H. Kurokawa, B. L. Ehlmann, M. C. De Sanctis +6
The Visible-Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (VIR) on board the Dawn spacecraft revealed that aqueous secondary minerals -- Mg-phyllosilicates, NH4-bearing phases, and Mg/Ca carbonate…
The surface of (1) Ceres in visible light as seen by Dawn/VIR
B. Rousseau, M. C. De Sanctis, A. Raponi +9
We study the surface of Ceres at visible wavelengths, as observed by the Visible and InfraRed mapping spectrometer (VIR) onboard the Dawn spacecraft, and analyze the variations of…
Infrared detection of aliphatic organics on a cometary nucleus
A. Raponi, M. Ciarniello, F. Capaccioni +28
The ESA Rosetta mission has acquired unprecedented measurements of comet 67/P-Churyumov-Gerasimenko (hereafter 67P) nucleus surface, whose composition, as determined by in situ and…
Ammonium salts are a reservoir of nitrogen on a cometary nucleus and possibly on some asteroids
O. Poch, I. Istiqomah, E. Quirico +29
The measured nitrogen-to-carbon ratio in comets is lower than for the Sun, a discrepancy which could be alleviated if there is an unknown reservoir of nitrogen in comets. The nucle…
