Towards understanding the dynamical evolution of asteroid 25143 Itokawa: constraints from sample analysis
The data from the analysis of samples returned by Hayabusa from asteroid 25143 Itokawa are used to constrain the preaccretion history, the geological activity that occurred after accretion, and the dynamical history of the asteroid from the main belt to near-Earth space. We synthesize existing data to pose hypotheses to be tested by dynamical modeling and the analyses of future samples returned...
متن کاملThermal infrared observations of the Hayabusa spacecraft target asteroid 25143 Itokawa ⋆
We obtained N-and Q-band observations of the Apollo-type asteroid 25143 Itokawa during its close Earth approach in July 2004 with TIMMI2 at the ESO 3.6 m telescope. Our photometric measurement, in combination with already published data, allowed us to derive a radiometric effective diameter of 0.32±0.03 km and an albedo of 0.19 +0.11 −0.03 through a thermophysical model. This effective diameter...
متن کاملThe Actual Dynamical Environment About Itokawa
The dynamical environment about and on Asteroid 25143 Itokawa is studied using the shape and rotation state model estimated during the close proximity phase of the Hayabusa mission to that asteroid. We first discuss the general gravitational properties of the shape model assuming a constant density. Next we discuss the actual dynamical environment about this body, both on the surface and in orb...
متن کاملOxygen isotopic compositions of asteroidal materials returned from Itokawa by the Hayabusa mission.
Meteorite studies suggest that each solar system object has a unique oxygen isotopic composition. Chondrites, the most primitive of meteorites, have been believed to be derived from asteroids, but oxygen isotopic compositions of asteroids themselves have not been established. We measured, using secondary ion mass spectrometry, oxygen isotopic compositions of rock particles from asteroid 25143 I...
