This process results in alterations in material spectroscopic features. Eventually, it can lead to misinterpretation of remotely sensed data in the visible\u2013near-infrared wavelength range. This study simulates the solar wind effect on asteroid spectra through low-energy 1 keV H+irradiation of meteorite pressed-powder samples under three fluences, 2\u00d71017, 5\u00d71017, and 1\u00d71018H+cm\u22122, and evaluates changes associated with reflectance spectra. The meteorites subjected to the study are Bjurb\u00f6le (L\/LL4), Avanhandava (H4), and Luotolax (howardite). The most prominent changes in all three meteorites are (1) a decrease of 550 nm reflectance, (2) reddening in the 1\u03bcm region, and (3) a monotonous decrease in absorption band strengths in Bjurb\u00f6le. No significant changes were observed in the 2\u03bcm region. The results imply that at short timescales (102\u2013103yr), radiation damage as amorphization and vesicle formation caused by low-energy solar wind is the dominant space weathering factor in all three meteorite compositions, causing spectral changes predominantly in the 1\u03bcm region.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lakshika Palamakumbure, Kenichiro Mizohata, Kate\u0159ina Flanderov\u00e1, David Korda, Antti Penttil\u00e4 and Tom\u00e1\u0161 Kohout The Planetary Science Journal, Volume 4, Number 4 LINK (OPEN ACCESS)PDF (OPEN ACCESS) &#8220;Space weathering can be defined as the combination of&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[77,34,7,130,3504,1184],"tags":[1771,3351,1622,1822,6510,1807,1479,191,673],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/karmaka.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33092"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/karmaka.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/karmaka.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/karmaka.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/karmaka.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=33092"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/karmaka.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33092\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":33093,"href":"https:\/\/karmaka.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33092\/revisions\/33093"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/karmaka.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=33092"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/karmaka.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=33092"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/karmaka.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=33092"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
