Field Surveys on Cape Ryugu, East Antarctica in 1977-1978

Antarctic Record, 1978
The summer field party of the 19th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE-19) camped at Cape Ryugu 220 km east-northeast of Japanese Antarctic Station, Syowa, from December 30th, 1977 to January 14th, 1978. Dr. KAMINUMA of the National Institute of

Small‐scale elemental abundance variations in Ryugu particles from touchdown 1

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Ryugu materials closely resemble CI chondrites' mineralogical, chemical, and isotopic compositions; yet minor but resolvable differences in certain elemental abundances are evident. In this study, the bulk chemical compositions of eight individual Ryugu particles (1.5–4.3 mg) from the first touchdown site (TD1) were determined using triple ...

Evidence for the Presence of Thin and Heterogenous Dust Deposits on Ryugu's Boulders From Hayabusa2 MARA and Sample Data

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
Middle infrared spectral results obtained in‐situ by the Hayabusa2 MARA instrument are generally in‐line with previous results and a new comparison with sample C0137 returned from asteroid (162173) Ryugu, being similar to an aqueously altered CI1 ...

Initial study of regolith exposure ages and burial conditions on Ryugu: Cosmogenic nuclides score in two touchdowns

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Surface processes on the asteroid Ryugu have been investigated using cosmic‐ray‐produced radionuclides, 10Be, 26Al, and 36Cl, and stable noble gases, on eight samples returned by the Hayabusa2 spacecraft. The 10Be and 26Al along with 21Ne measurements indicate that the two Chamber A samples A0105 collected during the first touchdown (TD) were ...

Shifting communities after­­ typhoon damage on an upper mesophotic reef in Okinawa, Japan [PDF]

PeerJ, 2017
Very few studies have been conducted on the long-term effects of typhoon damage on mesophotic coral reefs. This study investigates the long-term community dynamics of damage from Typhoon 17 (Jelawat) in 2012 on the coral community of the upper mesophotic

Non‐innocent solvents in meteorite extractions: Evidence for artifact formation

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Solvent extraction is a cornerstone of meteoritic organic and inorganic chemistry, yet the assumption that common solvents act as chemically inert media is becoming increasingly untenable. This study reports that low‐molecular‐weight alcohols, particularly methanol and ethanol, are “non‐innocent” solvents when used to extract soluble sulfur ...

Ryugu’s observed volatile loss did not arise from impact heating alone

Communications Earth & Environment, 2021
The loss of volatile material from asteroid Ryugu was not caused solely by heating from hypervelocity impacts as previously believed, suggest impact experiments conducted at speeds comparable to those expected in the main asteroid ...

Experimental Hypervelocity Dust Impacts in Olivine—Multiscale Insights Into Microcrater Shock and Melting Effects From Coordinated SEM/TEM Observations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The flux of solar system meteoroids is dominated by objects less than 1 mm in diameter whose impact effects play a major role in the space weathering of airless body surfaces. These effects remain poorly characterized with respect to their dependence on the range of impact speeds for meteoroids across the inner solar system.

Characteristics of Natural Remanence Records in Fine‐Grained Particles Returned From Asteroid Ryugu

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Particles collected from the asteroid Ryugu by the Hayabusa2 spacecraft offer a unique opportunity to investigate the magnetic record of the primitive solar system, as any terrestrial magnetic contamination is minimal and can be accounted for.

Visualization of nanoscale magnetic domain states in the asteroid Ryugu

Scientific Reports, 2023
In the samples collected from the asteroid Ryugu, magnetite displays natural remanent magnetization due to nebular magnetic field, whereas contemporaneously grown iron sulfide does not display stable remanent magnetization.
