Vesta, vestoids, and the HED meteorites: Interconnections and differences based on Dawn Framing Camera observations
[1] The Framing Camera (FC) on the Dawn spacecraft provided the first view of 4 Vesta at sufficiently high spatial resolution to enable a detailed correlation of the asteroid’s spectral properties with geologic features and with the vestoid (V-type) asteroids and the Howardite-Eucrite-Diogenite (HED) class of meteorites, both of which are believed to originate on Vesta. We combine a spectral an...
متن کاملGeologic map of the northern hemisphere of Vesta based on Dawn Framing Camera (FC) images
The Dawn Framing Camera (FC) has imaged the northern hemisphere of the Asteroid (4) Vesta at high spatial resolution and coverage. This study represents the first investigation of the overall geology of the northern hemisphere (22–90 N, quadrangles Av-1, 2, 3, 4 and 5) using these unique Dawn mission observations. We have compiled a morphologic map and performed crater size–frequency distributi...

متن کاملColor and albedo heterogeneity of Vesta from Dawn.
Multispectral images (0.44 to 0.98 μm) of asteroid (4) Vesta obtained by the Dawn Framing Cameras reveal global color variations that uncover and help understand the north-south hemispherical dichotomy. The signature of deep lithologies excavated during the formation of the Rheasilvia basin on the south pole has been preserved on the surface. Color variations (band depth, spectral slope, and eu...
متن کاملLithologic Unit Mapping Based on Omega/mars Express Data
This paper develops a procedure for mapping Martian lithologic units, using the OMEGA/Mars Express data. The procedure consists of correcting Martian atmospheric absorptions based on an empirical transmission function method, noise-free principle components analysis based on a minimum noise fraction (MNF) method, lithologic unit delineation, and spectral matching of the units to spectral librar...
