Complex Water Ice Mixtures on NII Nereid: Constraints from NIR Reflectance

Benjamin N. L. Sharkey, Vishnu Reddy, Juan A. Sanchez +2

Nereid, Neptune's third largest satellite, lies in an irregular orbit and is the only outer satellite in the system (apart from Triton) that can be spectroscopically characterized…

Compositional Constraints for Lucy Mission Trojan Asteroids via Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

Benjamin N. L. Sharkey, Vishnu Reddy, Juan A. Sanchez +2

We report near-infrared (0.7-2.5 micron) reflectance spectra for each of the six target asteroids of the forthcoming NASA Discovery-class mission Lucy. Five Jupiter Trojans (the bi…

Spectral properties and geology of bright and dark material on dwarf planet Ceres

G. Thangjam, A. Nathues, T. Platz +5

Variations and spatial distributions of bright and dark material on dwarf planet Ceres play a key role in understanding the processes that have led to its present surface compositi…

Surface Albedo and Spectral Variability of Ceres

Jian-Yang Li, Vishnu Reddy, Andreas Nathues +21

Previous observations suggested that Ceres has active but possibly sporadic water outgassing, and possibly varying spectral characteristics in a time scale of months. We used all a…

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…
