TL;DR: Major element composition ratios for regions of the asteroid 433 Eros imaged during two solar flares and quiet sun conditions during the period of May to July 2000 are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the major element ratios determined for the S-class asteroid 433 Eros using remote-sensing x-ray fluorescence spectroscopy with the near-Earth asteroid rendezvous Shoemaker X-ray spectrometer (XRS).

Timothy J. McCoy,Thomas H. Burbine,Lucy A. McFadden,R. D. Starr,Michael J. Gaffey,Larry R. Nittler,Larry G. Evans,Noam R. Izenberg,Paul G. Lucey,Jacob I. Trombka,James F. Bell,B. E. Clark,Pamela Elizabeth Clark,S. W. Squyres,Clark R. Chapman,William V. Boynton,Joseph Veverka +16 more
TL;DR: This paper used matrix inversion for simultaneous solution of mineral abundances, but seems to confirm the inconsistency between mineral compositions and orthopyroxene/clinopyroxenes ratios. But the results of the x-ray and gamma-ray data can be reconciled with a common silicate mineralogy by inclusion of varying amounts of metal.

Bulk element compositions of meteorites: A guide for interpreting remote-sensing geochemical measurements of planets and asteroids
Larry R. Nittler,Timothy J. McCoy,Pamela Elizabeth Clark,M. E. Murphy,Jacob I. Trombka,Eugene Jarosewich +5 more
TL;DR: A large database of bulk meteorite elemental abundances, compiled to aid in the interpretation of elemental abundance data determined by remote-sensing instrumentation on planetary missions, is reported in this article.
Book ChapterDOI
Principles of Remote Sensing
TL;DR: Instruments available today, whether in the laboratory, in situ, or remote in every way (observing instrument distant from target in natural, remote location), are elaborate and sophisticated extensions of the most ancient and venerable remote sensing devices: binocular human vision.
