Physical Interpretation of Bennu's Thermal Inertia
Abstract
Temperature and thermal inertia maps of the surface of asteroid (101955) Bennu indicate significant spatial variability in the physical properties of the surface material. Here, we provide initial interpretations of these datasets in terms of rock and regolith physical parameters that have a direct impact on thermal inertia.
