Spectral properties of asteroids in cometary orbits
Aims: In this paper we analyze the spectra of a sample of asteroids in cometary orbits (ACOs) in order to understand the relationship between them, the Jupiter...
Spectral properties of near-Earth objects with low-Jovian Tisserand invariant
The near-Earth objects with low-Jovian Tisserand invariant (T J) represent about 9 per cent of the known objects orbiting in the near-Earth space, being subject...
Spectrophotometric Properties of 162173 Ryugu's Surface from the NIRS3 Opposition Observations
Examination of the opposition geometry properties show that Ryugu's surface regolith is commensurate with laboratory studies of the photometric behavior of...
Spectroscopic investigation of near-Earth objects at Telescopio Nazionale Galileo
In this paper we present new results obtained from our spectroscopic survey of near-Earth objects (called SINEO). We show a set of 36 visible and near-infrared...
Spectroscopic study of Ceres' collisional family candidates
Context. Despite the observed signs of large impacts on the surface of Ceres, there is no confirmed collisional family associated with this dwarf planet. After...
Spectroscopy of B-type asteroids: Subgroups and meteorite analogs
B-type asteroids have a negative slope from ˜0.5 to ˜1.1 μm and beyond. What causes this? Visible to near-infrared reflectance spectra (0.4-2.5 μm) are...
Context. Basaltic V-type asteroids play a crucial role in studies of Solar System evolution and planetesimal formation. Comprehensive studies of their physical...
Spin-driven evolution of asteroids' top-shapes at fast and slow spins seen from (101955) Bennu and (162173) Ryugu
Proximity observations by OSIRIS-REx and Hayabusa2 provided clues on the shape evolution processes of the target asteroids, (101955) Bennu and (162173) Ryugu...
