Vesta: Spin Pole, Size, and Shape from HST Images
Abstract HST images obtained over an interval of 71 hr at a scale of 52 km/pixel have been used to determine the spin pole, size, and shape of Vesta. Several bright and dark surface features allow…
Geologic Mapping of Vesta from 1994 Hubble Space Telescope Images
We utilize the 56 images of Asteroid 4 Vesta obtained through four mineralogically diagnostic filters by the Hubble Space Telescope (Zellneret al.1997,Icarus) to construct a geologic map. Vesta's…
