A number of distinct methodologies are available for determining the oxygen isotope
composition of minerals and rocks, these include laser-assisted fluorination, secondary ion …

Advancing technology in near-infrared instrumentation and dedicated planetary telescope
facilities have enabled nearly two decades of reconnoitering the spectral properties for near …

The nature and origin of the asteroids orbiting in near-Earth space, including those on a
potentially hazardous trajectory, is of both scientific interest and practical importance. We …

Ejecta from Dimorphos following the DART mission impact significantly increased the
brightness of the Didymos–Dimorphos system, allowing us to examine subsurface material …

Context. The study of planet-crossing asteroids is of both practical and fundamental
importance. As they are closer than asteroids in the Main Belt, we have access to a smaller …

Abstract Magnetite (Fe 3+(Fe 2+ Fe 3+) 2 O 4) is ubiquitous in Earth and planetary materials,
forming in igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary settings, sometimes influenced by …

Large terrestrial bodies in our solar system like the Earth, Mars, Mercury, and the Moon
exhibit geologically complex surfaces with compositional heterogeneity. From past studies …

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. Radar …

The NASA Psyche mission will explore the structure, composition, and other properties of
asteroid (16) Psyche to test hypotheses about its formation. Variations in radar reflectivity …

Laboratory spectral measurements of relevant analogue materials were performed in the
framework of the Rosetta mission in order to explain the surface spectral properties of comet …
