Exploring the Interior Structure of (16) Psyche Through Basin‐Scale Collisions

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Asteroid (16) Psyche, the largest member of the M/X‐type asteroids, may be the leftover core of a differentiated planetesimal. As such (16) Psyche will be explored in detail by NASA's discovery‐class Psyche mission in 2029. This will be the first mission to orbit a metal‐rich asteroid, or any asteroid in the 100–500 km size range.

Simulation of gravity field estimation of Phobos for Martian Moon eXploration (MMX)

Earth, Planets and Space
We study the dynamic orbit about Phobos of the Martian Moon eXploration (MMX) spacecraft and simulate gravity field estimation using Doppler, image landmarks, and LIght Detection And Ranging (LIDAR) data based on a mission plan of MMX and investigate ...

Water Vapor Vertical Distribution on Mars After Six Years of TGO/NOMAD Solar Occultations: 1. Global Climatology

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract We present vertical profiles of water vapor obtained during six continuous years of solar occultation observations in the infrared by the Nadir and Occultation for MArs Discovery (NOMAD) instrument on board Trace Gas Orbiter. The retrievals have been performed with an inversion code previously applied to smaller samples of this data set, but ...

Study of the main geochemical characteristics of Phobos’ regolith using laser time-of-flight mass spectrometry [PDF]

, 2010
The peculiarities of the airborne LAZMA instrument applied for the measurement of the isotopic and elemental composition of Phobos’ regolith by the method of laser time-of-flight mass spectrometry are discussed.

JAXA curation for Bennu samples returned by the NASA's OSIRIS‐REx mission

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 182-207, January 2026.
Abstract NASA's OSIRIS‐REx mission successfully collected and returned ~121.6 g of bulk samples from the B‐type, near‐Earth asteroid (101955) Bennu to Earth in September 2023. Upon returning to Earth, the samples were transported to the NASA Johnson Space Center where most of the samples have been stored and processed.

Evidence of mafic silicates in the blue unit of Phobos: Vis-NIR analogs within the C and Xc-type asteroid taxonomy

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The composition of Phobos’ blue unit is poorly constrained due a lack of diagnostic spectral features. A ≈1 μm absorption was tentatively identified in past studies, but there has not been a conclusive detection. This situation has precluded the

Space‐Weathered Anorthosite as Spectral D‐Type Material on the Martian Satellites

Geophysical Research Letters, 2018
Spectral D‐type asteroids are characterized by dark, red‐sloped, and featureless spectra at visible and near‐infrared wavelengths and are thought to be composed of rocks rich in organic compounds.

A Review of Hydrophobicity Measurement and Classification Methods for High‐Voltage Insulators

Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Hydrophobicity is a critical property influencing the performance and reliability of high‐voltage insulators, particularly nonceramic types, by mitigating surface contamination and reducing the risk of flashover. This paper presents a comprehensive review of hydrophobicity assessment techniques, spanning traditional laboratory‐based techniques ...
