• Mercury’s Weather-Beaten Surface: Understanding Mercury in the Context of Lunar and Asteroidal Space Weathering Studies (2014, background): “…the surface of asteroid Itokawa by the Hayabusa spacecraft showed that the samples are closely similar to LL ordinary chondrite materials, as predicted by Binzel et al. (2001), and contain nanophase Fe particles responsible for the space-weathered S-type spectrum of Itokawa (Noguchi et al. 2011).”
• Mineralogies and source regions of near-Earth asteroids (2013, methodology): “…most other researchers argued that Itokawa’s composition was similar to (unmelted) ordinary chondrites on the basis of its ground-based reflectance spectra (Binzel et al., 2001), Hayabusa reflectance spectra (Abe et al., 2006; Hiroi et al., 2006), and X-ray fluorescence data (Okada et al., 2006).”
• The Compositional Structure of the Asteroid Belt (2015, background): “ Hayabusa's  sample  return  of  Itokawa  provided  conclusive   evidence.”
• SPACE WEATHERING OF ASTEROID SURFACES (2004, methodology): “Another chance is approaching to test predictions of the mineralogical composition of the NEA Itokawa based on telescopic data (Binzel et al. 2001) against measurements, and actual returned material, to be obtained by the Japanese Hayabusa (MUSES-C) spacecraft (launched May 2003, material returned…”
