A spectroscopic comparison of HED meteorites and V-type asteroids in the inner Main Belt

A spectroscopic comparison of HED meteorites and V-type asteroids in the inner Main Belt

V-type asteroids in the inner Main Belt (a < 2.5 AU) and the HED meteorites are thought to be genetically related to one another as collisional fragments from the surface of the large basaltic Asteroid 4 Vesta. We investigate this relationship by comparing the near-infrared (0.7–2.5 μm) spectra o...
