The Rotationally-resolved surface properties of (433) Eros from thermophysical modeling
Abstract
We present results from a shape-based, rotationally- resolved thermophysical model of near-Earth asteroid Eros, using near-IR spectra over 19 epochs from 2009-2019 covering a variety of viewing geometries and rotational phases. Results from the NEAR spacecraft were used as input parameters to the model, allowing us to study Eros at wavelengths not measured by NEAR, specifically the thermal near-IR (λ > 3.5 microns) regime.
