Spectral evolution of dark asteroid surfaces induced by space weathering over a decade

Sunao Hasegawa, Francesca E. DeMeo, Michael Marsset +20

The surface of airless bodies like asteroids in the Solar System are known to be affected by space weathering. Experiments simulating space weathering are essential for studying th…

Thermal radiation pressure as a possible mechanism for losing small particles on asteroids

Yoonsoo P. Bach, Masateru Ishiguro

Context. Recent observations of dust ejections from active asteroids, including (3200) Phaethon, have drawn considerable interest from planetary astronomers studying the generation…

Polarimetric Study of Near-Earth Asteroid (1566) Icarus

Masateru Ishiguro, Daisuke Kuroda, Makoto Watanabe +13

We conducted a polarimetric observation of the fast-rotating near-Earth asteroid (1566) Icarus at large phase (Sun-asteroid-observer's) angles = 57 deg--141deg around the 2015 s…
