Outline of Final Research Achievements

Visible-infrared reflectance spectra of meteorites recovered from Antarctica by the National Institute of Polar Research were measured for estimating their mineral assemblages and mineral chemical compositions. Reflectance spectra of one or more spots on each chip of more than 130 meteorite chip samples of precious meteorites from Mars and the Moon, HED meteorites which mostly came from the asteroid Vesta, and carbonaceous chondrites containing water and organics were measured. By applying linear extrapolation, modified Gaussian model deconvolution, principal component analysis, etc. on those spectra, the rock types and mineral/chemical compositions could be understood, and the scheme for applying this technique to planetary missions such as Hayabusa2 has been proposed.
