Phase reddening on near-Earth asteroids: Implications for mineralogical analysis, space weathering and taxonomic classification (2012, methodology): “The spectral band parameters for each VIS-NIR spectrum were measured using the Spectral Processing Routine (SpecPR) program based on the protocols discussed by Cloutis et al. (1986), Gaffey et al. (2002), and Gaffey (2003).”
Space weathering and the interpretation of asteroid reflectance spectra (2010, methodology): “from Hiroi and Sasaki (2001). particle irradiation for a sample of the H5 chondrite Épinal.”
Evidence for asteroid space weathering from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (2005, background): “On the other hand,2 correlates with the spectral curvature generated by b absorption features such as the 1-µm olivine/pyroxene ab sorption band (e.g.,Gaffey et al., 2002).”
Mineralogies and source regions of near-Earth asteroids (2013, methodology): “However, one problem with determining the mineralogies of NEAs is that formulas used previously for deriving pyroxene compositions (Gaffey et al., 2002) do not work very well for ordinary chondrite assemblages (Gaffey, 2007; McCoy et al., 2007).”
