Effects of dust layers on thermal emission from airless bodies

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2019
We have investigated the influence of thin thermally opaque dust layers on the thermal emission of rocks and regolith and determined the thermal response of these dust-covered surfaces to diurnal insolation cycles.

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

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 4, Page 565-579, April 2026.
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 ...

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

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 4, Page 706-719, April 2026.
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 ...

Hydrogen abundance estimation model and application to (162173) Ryugu

open access: yes, 2021
Context. The JAXA asteroid sample return mission Hayabusa2 acquired a huge quantity of data from the asteroid (162173) Ryugu during its 1.5 years in asteroid proximity orbit. On December 5, 2020 (Japan time), Hayabusa brought back to Earth a 5.4 g sample

Collisional formation of top-shaped asteroids and implications for the origins of Ryugu and Bennu [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Asteroid shapes and hydration levels can serve as tracers of their history and origin. For instance, the asteroids (162173) Ryugu and (101955) Bennu have an oblate spheroidal shape with a pronounced equator, but contain different surface hydration levels.

Gravity Survey in Cape Ryugu and Syowa Station, Antarctic

open access: yesAntarctic Record, 1980
Gravity survey was carried out in Cape Ryugu, and East and West Ongul Islands by the summer party of the 19th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE-19) using a LaCoste and Romberg model G land gravity meter.

Phyllosilicates with embedded Fe-based nanophases in Ryugu and Orgueil

open access: yes, 2023
Samples were recently collected from the carbonaceous asteroid (162173) Ryugu, by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) Hayabusa2 mission. They resemble CI chondrites material, thus showing clear evidence of extensive aqueous alteration attested ...

Microstructural and chemical features of impact melts on Ryugu particle surfaces: Records of interplanetary dust hit on asteroid Ryugu. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Adv
The Hayabusa2 spacecraft delivered samples of the carbonaceous asteroid Ryugu to Earth. Some of the sample particles show evidence of micrometeoroid impacts, which occurred on the asteroid surface. Among those, particles A0067 and A0094 have flat surfaces on which a large number of microcraters and impact melt splashes are observed.

JWST Spectroscopy of (142) Polana: Connection to NEAs (101955) Bennu and (162173) Ryugu

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
The new Polana collisional family is the hypothesized origin of the near-Earth asteroids (101955) Bennu, which was the target of the NASA OSIRIS-REx mission, and (162173) Ryugu, which was the target of the JAXA Hayabusa2 mission.
