Outline of Final Research Achievements

Small solar system bodies created by collisions have information on the early Solar system. However, the surface properties and spectral types of these solar system bodies change due to the space weathering. Therefore, the effect of space weathering should be considered when we investigate the information on the early Solar system from the spectral types. We perform the visible and near-infrared multicolor photometry of near-Earth objects, identify their spectral types, and investigate their distribution. As a result, we reveal how spectral types change due to the space weathering from the early Solar system.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

当該研究によって取得した観測データを解析し、太陽系初期の情報を推定することで、現在多種多様な太陽系形成・惑星形成の理論モデルに制約を与えることができる。太陽系形成・惑星形成がどのようにして行われたかは、地球や我々人類がどのようにして誕生したか、また太陽系や惑星が今後どのようにして進化していくかを解き明かす上で重要であり、本研究手法の確立やその成果の学術的意義、社会的意義は非常に大きい。
