The primary aim of Hayabusa mission is to reveal the relationship between asteroids and meteorites, including a fundamental question whether the asteroids are the parent body of meteorites or not. The XRS (X-Ray Spectrometer) onboard Hayabusa observed X-ray fluorescence emission from the uppermost surface materials of Itokawa, excited by solar X-rays, in order to determine the major elemental composition of Itokawa. The results of analysis indicate that major elemental composition of the surface materials of Itokawa resembles that of chondrite-analogues. In particular, elemental mass ratio of Fe/Si is larger than that of average composition of ordinary chondrites but the corrected result with mineral mixing effect indicates that the Fe/Si ratio is nearly equal to that of average ratio of ordinary chondrites. Since metallic Fe-rich meteorites are ruled out in the candidates of meteorite-analogues of Itokawa in terms of an S (4) subtype asteroids (Gaffey et al., 1993), our result may support that the reason of reddened and darkened features in visible and near infrared reflectance spectrum is space weathering., 資料番号: AA0063723018}, pages = {73--77}, publisher = {宇宙航空研究開発機構宇宙科学研究本部, Institute of Space and Astronautical Science, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA/ISAS)}, title = {Major elemental analysis with XRS onboard Hayabusa and speculation for asteroids and meteorites relations}, year = {2007} }
