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…
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…
Olivine or Impact Melt: Nature of the "Orange" Material on Vesta from Dawn
Lucille Le Corre, Vishnu Reddy, Nico Schmedemann +18
NASA's Dawn mission observed a great variety of colored terrains on asteroid (4) Vesta during its survey with the Framing Camera (FC). Here we present a detailed study of the orang…
Comparing Dawn, Hubble Space Telescope, and Ground-Based Interpretations of (4) Vesta
Vishnu Reddy, Jian-Yang Li, Lucille Le Corre +10
Observations of asteroid 4 Vesta by NASA's Dawn spacecraft are interesting because its surface has the largest range of albedo, color and composition of any other asteroid visited…
Delivery of Dark Material to Vesta via Carbonaceous Chondritic Impacts
Vishnu Reddy, Lucille Le Corre, David P. O'Brien +22
NASA's Dawn spacecraft observations of asteroid (4) Vesta reveal a surface with the highest albedo and color variation of any asteroid we have observed so far. Terrains rich in low…
