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…
The compositional diversity of non-Vesta basaltic asteroids
Thomas B. Leith, Nicholas A. Moskovitz, Rhiannon G. Mayne +5
We present near-infrared (0.78-2.45 μm) reflectance spectra for nine middle and outer main belt (a > 2.5 AU) basaltic asteroids. Three of these objects are spectrally distinct from…
Detection of Rotational Spectral Variation on the M-type asteroid (16) Psyche
Juan A. Sanchez, Vishnu Reddy, Michael K. Shepard +6
The asteroid (16) Psyche is of scientific interest because it contains ~ 1% of the total mass of the asteroid belt and is thought to be the remnant metallic core of a protoplanet.…
