Mineralogy and Surface Composition of Asteroids [PDF]
, 2015 Methods to constrain the surface mineralogy of asteroids have seen considerable development during the last decade with advancement in laboratory spectral calibrations and validation of our interpretive methodologies by spacecraft rendezvous missions. This has enabled the accurate identification of several meteorite parent bodies in the main asteroid ...

Infrared optical signature reveals the source–dependency and along–transport evolution of dust mineralogy as shown by laboratory study [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 Advancing knowledge of the mineralogical composition of dust is key for understanding and predicting its climate and environmental impacts. The variability of dust mineralogy from one source to another and its evolution during atmospheric transport is ...

Modeling dust mineralogical composition: sensitivity to soil mineralogy atlases and their expected climate impacts [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2023 Soil dust aerosols are a key component of the climate system, as they interact with short- and long-wave radiation, alter cloud formation processes, affect atmospheric chemistry and play a role in biogeochemical cycles by providing nutrient inputs such ...
