Description

The codes in this folder allow fitting abundance of fine regolith and thermal inertia of rocks to the data collected by the OSIRIS-REx Thermal Emission Spectrometer using the method by Cambioni et al. 2019 [1] and analyze the results. The codes supports the findings of the paper: Cambioni, Delbo, Poggiali, Avdellidou, Ryan, Deshapriya, Asphaug, Ballouz, Barucci, Bennett, Bottke,  Brucato, Burke, Cloutis, DellaGiustina, Emery, Rozitis, Walsh, Lauretta. "Fine-regolith production on asteroids controlled by rock porosity" (Submitted 2021-03-11).
