Updated in-flight calibration of the Hayabusa2/NIRS3 spectrometer: new global near-infrared photometric properties of asteroid (162173) Ryugu

Antonin Wargnier, Eri Tatsumi, Koki Yumoto +10

The Near InfraRed Spectrometer (NIRS3) onboard Hayabusa2 observed asteroid (162173) Ryugu, searching especially for signatures of water-bearing minerals. However, during the missio…

Planetary-scale variations in winds and UV brightness at the Venusian cloud top: Periodicity and temporal evolution

Masataka Imai, Toru Kouyama, Yukihiro Takahashi +9

Planetary-scale waves at the Venusian cloud-top cause periodic variations in both winds and ultraviolet (UV) brightness. While the wave candidates are the 4-day Kelvin wave and 5-d…

Long-term variations of Venus' 365-nm albedo observed by Venus Express, Akatsuki, MESSENGER, and Hubble Space Telescope

Yeon Joo Lee, Kandis-Lea Jessup, Santiago Perez-Hoyos +16

An unknown absorber near the cloud top level of Venus generates a broad absorption feature from the ultraviolet (UV) to visible, peaking around 360 nm, and therefore plays a critic…

Global structure of thermal tides in the upper cloud layer of Venus revealed by LIR onboard Akatsuki

T. Kouyama, M. Taguchi, T. Fukuhara +11

Longwave Infrared Camera (LIR) onboard Akatsuki first revealed the global structure of the thermal tides in the upper cloud layer of Venus. The data were acquired over three Venusi…

Equatorial jet in the lower to middle cloud layer of Venus revealed by Akatsuki

T. Horinouchi, S. Murakami, T. Satoh +15

The Venusian atmosphere is in a state of superrotation where prevailing westward winds move much faster than the planet's rotation. Venus is covered with thick clouds that extend f…
