Abstract

This study aims to determine the size, albedo and rotational period of (98943) 2001 CC21, target of the Hayabusa2 extended mission, using thermal data from the Spitzer Space telescope and ground based observations. The Spitzer data were acquired with the Infrared Spectrograph in the 6-38 micron range, reduced using the Spitzer pipeline and modeled with the Near Earth Asteroid Thermal Modeling to determine the asteroid size and albedo. The absolute magnitude and the rotational period were determined thanks to new observations carried out at the 3.5m New Technology Telescope, at the 1.2m Observatoire de Haute Provence, and at the 0.7m Abastumani telescope. Three complete lightcurves were obtained in 2023-2024 at the last mentioned telescope. We determine an absolute magnitude of H=18.94$\pm$0.05, and a rotational period of 5.02124$\pm$0.00001 hours, with a large lightcurve amplitude of $\sim$ 0.8 mag. at a phase angle of 22$^o$, indicating a very elongated shape with estimated a/b semiaxis ratio $\geq$ 1.7, or a close-contact binary body. The emissivity of 2001 CC21 is consistent with that of silicates, and its albedo is 21.6$\pm$1.6 %. Finally, the spherical-equivalent diameter of 2001 CC21 is 465$\pm$15 m. The albedo value and emissivity here determined, coupled with results from polarimetry and spectroscopy from the literature, confirm that 2001 CC21 is an S-complex asteroid, and not a L-type, as previously suggested. The size of 2001 CC21 is less than 500 m, which is smaller than its first size estimation ($\sim$ 700 m). These results are relevant in preparation of the observing strategy of 2001 CC21 by Hayabusa2 extended mission., Comment: 7 pages, 9 figures, accepted for publication in A&A letter

Abstract

This study aims to analyze Phobos' photometric properties using Mars Express mission observations to support the Martian Moons eXploration mission. We analyzed resolved images of Phobos acquired between 2004 and 2022 by the HRSC and the SRC cameras on board the Mars Express spacecraft. We performed photometric analysis using the Hapke model for both integrated and disk-resolved data. The Phobos phase function has a strong opposition effect due to shadow hiding, with an amplitude and a half-width of the opposition surge of 2.28$\pm$0.03 and 0.0573$\pm$0.0001, respectively. Overall, the surface of Phobos is dark, with a geometric albedo of 6.8 % in the green filter and backscattering. We also found a surface porosity of 87\%, indicating the presence of a thick dust mantle or of fractal aggregates on the top surface. The SSA maps revealed high reflectance variability, with the blue unit area in the northeast Stickney rim being up to 65\% brighter than average, while the Stickney floor is among the darkest regions, with reflectance 10 to 20% lower than average. Photometric modeling of the regions of interest selected in the red and blue units indicates that red unit terrains have a stronger opposition effect and a smaller SSA value than the blue ones, but they have similar porosity and backscattering properties. The HRSC data provide a unique investigation of the Phobos phase function and opposition surge, which is valuable information for the MMX observational planning. The Phobos opposition surge, surface porosity, phase integral, and spectral slope are very similar to the values observed for the comet 67P and for Jupiter family comets in general. Based on these similarities, we formulate a hypothesis that the Mars satellites might be the results of a binary or bilobated comet captured by Mars., Comment: 30 pages, 16 figures, accepted for publication in Astron. & Astroph

Abstract

We present new results of the observing program which is a part of the NEOROCKS project aimed to improve knowledge on physical properties of near-Earth Objects (NEOs) for planetary defense. Photometric observations were performed using the 1.2m telescope at the Haute-Provence observatory (France) in the BVRI filters of the Johnson-Cousins photometric systems between June 2021 and April 2022. We obtained new surface colors for 42 NEOs. Based on the measured colors we classified 20 objects as S-complex, 9 as C-complex, 9 as X-complex, 2 as D-type, one object as V-type, and one object remained unclassified. For all the observed objects we estimated their absolute magnitudes and diameters. Combining these new observations with the previously acquired data within the NEOROCKS project extended our dataset to 93 objects. The majority of objects in the dataset with diameters D<500m belongs to a group of silicate bodies, which could be related to observational bias. Based on MOID and $\Delta$V values we selected 14 objects that could be accessible by a spacecraft. Notably, we find D-type asteroid (163014) 2001 UA5 and A-type asteroid 2017 SE19 to be of particular interest as possible space mission targets.

Abstract

The past few decades have seen major developments in the design and operation of cryogenic particle detectors. This technology offers an extremely good energy resolution – comparable to semiconductor detectors – and a wide choice of target materials, making low temperature calorimetric detectors ideal for a variety of particle physics applications. Rare event searches have continued to require ever greater exposures, which has driven them to ever larger cryogenic detectors, with the CUORE experiment being the first to reach a tonne-scale, mK-cooled, experimental mass. CUORE, designed to search for neutrinoless double beta decay, has been operational since 2017 at a temperature of about 10 mK. This result has been attained by the use of an unprecedentedly large cryogenic infrastructure called the CUORE cryostat: conceived, designed and commissioned for this purpose. In this article the main characteristics and features of the cryogenic facility developed for the CUORE experiment are highlighted. A brief introduction of the evolution of the field and of the past cryogenic facilities are given. The motivation behind the design and development of the CUORE cryogenic facility is detailed as are the steps taken toward realization, commissioning, and operation of the CUORE cryostat. The major challenges overcome by the collaboration and the solutions implemented throughout the building of the cryogenic facility will be discussed along with the potential improvements for future facilities. The success of CUORE has opened the door to a new generation of large-scale cryogenic facilities in numerous fields of science. Broader implications of the incredible feat achieved by the CUORE collaboration on the future cryogenic facilities in various fields ranging from neutrino and dark matter experiments to quantum computing will be examined.

Abstract

Context. A number of bodies in the Solar System are characterized by dark surfaces, from carbonaceous asteroids to the enigmatic surface of Phobos and Deimos. Our understanding of the spectroscopic behavior of low-albedo surfaces remains incomplete. To improve the interpretation of remote sensing data, laboratory studies continue to serve as a pivotal tool for unveiling the physical state and composition of such surfaces. Aims. Several processes can be simulated in the laboratory, however, the preparation and analysis of a complex mixing of analog material is one of the most fundamental among them, while also being one of the most complex when multiple components are used. In this work, we aim to study how dark material mixed with basaltic material at different grain sizes can affect the spectroscopic features from the near- to mid- infrared (1.25–25 µm). Methods. Our sample set includes four series of basaltic mix (feldspar and pyroxene) at different grain sizes from <50 µm to 1000 µm, mixed with amorphous carbon at increasing weight percentages ranging from 1% to 50%. We analyzed several features on the spectrum of each mineral mixture. In particular, we investigated the behavior of the: (i) near-infrared slope; (ii) 2.7 µm OH-stretching band; (iii) Christiansen features; and (iv) Reststrahlen band and Transparency feature. Results. The measurements presented in this work, which take into account a large wavelength range for the first time, point toward a critical effect of dark material, but with a different outcomes for each grain size. Some of the most interesting results involve the slope trend of modification with dark material and the variant behavior of the Reststrahlen band and Transparency feature. Conclusions. This dataset will offer a key support in the interpretation of data collected on dark surfaces by past and future space missions. This knowledge will be also important in the context of linking analyses of returned samples with remote sensing data collected on planetary surfaces. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The OSIRIS-REx spacecraft completed the first part of the primary objective by successfully sampling the surface of asteroid (101955) Bennu and storing the acquired sample in the re-entry capsule. The sampling 'Touch-And-Go' (TAG) maneuver was performed nominally at the primary sampling site, Nightingale, in Bennu's Northern hemisphere. As a consequence of the TAG, material at the sampling site was mobilized and the morphology of the area was altered. This event offered a unique opportunity to investigate, in detail, the subsurface of asteroid Bennu giving access to fine grained and less altered material from Nightingale crater. We performed a detailed study on the infrared spectrum in the Nightingale region to search for modification resulting from the sampling event by analysing different features: slope, the H2O–OH− related absorption band in the |$2.7\ \mu {\rm m}$| region, and other possible features. Our results show that, despite visible alteration of the TAG location detected by cameras, no strong variations are observed in the near-infrared bands and their quantitative evaluation is not possible beyond all the instrumental effects, although some changes may have occurred. We confirm that the infrared spectrum of the sampling site becomes redder with respect to the pre-TAG observations, conceivably due to fine material mobilization and exposure of less altered material, as confirmed by decreased spectral convexity. We identify possible modification of hydrated band at |$2.7\ \mu {\rm m}$| but with some concerns due to data quality. However, our results place new constraints on the nature of Bennu's subsurface material and the sample collected by OSIRIS-REx. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The past few decades have seen major developments in the design and operation of cryogenic particle detectors. This technology offers an extremely good energy resolution - comparable to semiconductor detectors - and a wide choice of target materials, making low temperature calorimetric detectors ideal for a variety of particle physics applications. Rare event searches have continued to require ever greater exposures, which has driven them to ever larger cryogenic detectors, with the CUORE experiment being the first to reach a tonne-scale, mK-cooled, experimental mass. CUORE, designed to search for neutrinoless double beta decay, has been operational since 2017 at a temperature of about 10 mK. This result has been attained by the use of an unprecedentedly large cryogenic infrastructure called the CUORE cryostat: conceived, designed and commissioned for this purpose. In this article the main characteristics and features of the cryogenic facility developed for the CUORE experiment are highlighted. A brief introduction of the evolution of the field and of the past cryogenic facilities are given. The motivation behind the design and development of the CUORE cryogenic facility is detailed as are the steps taken toward realization, commissioning, and operation of the CUORE cryostat. The major challenges overcome by the collaboration and the solutions implemented throughout the building of the cryogenic facility will be discussed along with the potential improvements for future facilities. The success of CUORE has opened the door to a new generation of large-scale cryogenic facilities in numerous fields of science. Broader implications of the incredible feat achieved by the CUORE collaboration on the future cryogenic facilities in various fields ranging from neutrino and dark matter experiments to quantum computing will be examined., Comment: 45 pages, 14 figures
