Jian-Yang Li,David W. Mittlefehldt,Carle M. Pieters,M. C. De Sanctis,Stefan Schröder,Harald Hiesinger,David T. Blewett,C. T. Russell,Carol A. Raymond,H. U. Keller +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report an initial attempt to understand the origin of the areas that are distinctively brighter than their surroundings on Vesta, which are reported in a companion paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of V-type asteroids orbiting in the middle and outer main belt
Alessandra Migliorini,M. C. De Sanctis,Tatiana A. Michtchenko,Daniela Lazzaro,Mauro Barbieri,Dino Mesa,Monica Lazzarin,F. La Forgia +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented new spectral observations using ground-based telescopes of 23 putative V-type asteroids, selected according to colour surveys in the visible from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and near-infrared from the Moving Objects VISTA catalogue.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spectral analysis of the quadrangles Av-13 and Av-14 on Vesta
Francesca Zambon,Alessandro Frigeri,J. Ph. Combe,Federico Tosi,Andrea Longobardo,E. Ammannito,M. C. De Sanctis,David T. Blewett,Jennifer E.C. Scully,Ernesto Palomba,B. Denevi,A. Yingst,C. T. Russell,Carol A. Raymond +13 more
TL;DR: The Av-13 and Av-14 quadrangles are located in the south-west region of Vesta and are characterized by a large topographic variability, from the highest terra highlands to the lowest basin this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal modeling of the active Centaur P/2004 A1 (LONEOS)
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate whether it is possible to explain the strong activity of the Centaur P/2004 A1 (LONEOS) in terms of the usual sublimation mechanisms.
