Soluble organic molecules in samples of the carbonaceous asteroid (162173) Ryugu

open access: green, 2023
Surface material from the near-Earth carbonaceous (C-type) asteroid (162173) Ryugu was collected and brought to Earth by the Hayabusa2 spacecraft. Ryugu is a dark, primitive asteroid containing hydrous minerals that are similar to the most hydrated ...

Reactive Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Micrometeoroid Bombardment for Space Weathering of Asteroid (162173) Ryugu

open access: goldThe Astrophysical Journal
Remote sensing observations by Hayabusa2 and laboratory measurements have revealed that the phyllosilicates on asteroid (162173) Ryugu are dehydrated/dehydroxylated due to space weathering.

The Asteroid 162173 Ryugu: a Cometary Origin [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2021
Abstract The Japanese Hayabusa2 mission has revealed in detail the physical characteristics of the C-type asteroid 162173 Ryugu, in particular, its spinning top-shaped rubble-pile structure and potentially high organic content. A widely accepted formation scenario for Ryugu is catastrophic collision between larger asteroids and the ...

Mid-infrared emissivity of partially dehydrated asteroid (162173) Ryugu shows strong signs of aqueous alteration

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Spectral characteristics can be used to link asteroid and meteorite materials. Here, the authors show in-situ mid-infrared data of a boulder on asteroid Ryugu, compared with laboratory spectra of various meteorites, indicate that Ryugu experienced strong

PAHs, hydrocarbons, and dimethylsulfides in Asteroid Ryugu samples A0106 and C0107 and the Orgueil (CI1) meteorite

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2023
Evaluating the molecular distribution of organic compounds in pristine extraterrestrial materials is cornerstone to understanding the abiotic synthesis of organics and allows us to better understand the molecular diversity available during the formation ...

Spectrally blue hydrated parent body of asteroid (162173) Ryugu

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Both poles of asteroid Ryugu, the target of space mission Hayabusa2, preserve the least processed material by space weathering. Here, the authors show detection of 700 nm absorption band in the polar spectra of Ryugu, that allows to constrain the ...

Chondrule-like objects and Ca-Al-rich inclusions in Ryugu may potentially be the oldest Solar System materials

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Chondrule-like objects and CAIs in the Ryugu samples are early generations of chondrules and possibly oldest solids in the Solar System. They were transported from the inner solar nebula to the formation location of the Ryugu original parent body.

Dynamic precise orbit determination of Hayabusa2 using laser altimeter (LIDAR) and image tracking data sets

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2020
The precise orbit of the Hayabusa2 spacecraft with respect to asteroid Ryugu is dynamically determined using the data sets collected by the spacecraft’s onboard laser altimeter (LIght Detection And Ranging, LIDAR) and automated image tracking (AIT).
