The Distribution of Highly Red-sloped Asteroids in the Middle and Outer Main Belt
Red ( S > 10%/0.1 μ m) spectral slopes are common among Centaurs and trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) in the outer solar system. Interior to and co-orbital with Jupiter, the red ( S ∼ 10%/0.1 μ m) slopes of D-type main-belt and Jupiter Trojan asteroids are

MAIN-BELT ASTEROIDS WITH WISE/NEOWISE: NEAR-INFRARED ALBEDOS [PDF]
We present revised near-infrared albedo fits of 2835 main-belt asteroids observed by WISE/NEOWISE over the course of its fully cryogenic survey in 2010.

Asteroids are rocky cosmic objects smaller than planets. There are about 1.1 to 1.9 million asteroids in our solar system. One of them is Bennu. September 11, 1999 LINEAR (Lincoln Near Earth Asteroid Research) Bennu was discovered in the near-earth asteroid survey.

Grazing by sea urchins is a potential co‐driver of Greenland kelp forest distribution
Abstract Grazing by sea urchins is a main driver of kelp forest dynamics causing shifts from kelp forests to urchin barrens in the temperate region but there is limited information on such patterns from the Arctic region. Based on information from 132 underwater video transects along Greenland's West Coast at 59.9–77.8°N, we explored the distribution ...

Compact Spectral Imaging: A Review of Miniaturized and Integrated Systems
This review explores the rapid shift toward compact spectral imaging systems by examining four key design paradigms: Do‐It‐Yourself (DIY) platforms, freeform optics, filter‐on‐chip integration, and multifunctional metasurfaces. The discussion highlights critical applications in medicine, agriculture, and environmental monitoring, providing comparative ...

ABSTRACT Recently, there has been a surge of international interest in extraterrestrial exploration targeting the Moon, Mars, the moons of Mars, and various asteroids. This contribution discusses how current state‐of‐the‐art Earth‐based testing for designing rovers and landers for these missions currently leads to overly optimistic conclusions about ...

The strength of regolith and rubble pile asteroids [PDF]
We explore the hypothesis that, due to small van der Waals forces between constituent grains, small rubble pile asteroids have a small but nonzero cohesive strength.

New Paradigms For Asteroid Formation
Asteroids and meteorites provide key evidence on the formation of planetesimals in the Solar System. Asteroids are traditionally thought to form in a bottom-up process by coagulation within a population of initially km-scale planetesimals.
