    Abstract C-type asteroids1 are considered to be primitive small Solar System bodies enriched in water and organics, providing clues to the origin and evolution of the Solar System and the building blocks of life. C-type asteroid 162173 Ryugu has been characterized by remote sensing2–7 and on-asteroid measurements8,9 with Hayabusa2 (ref. 10). However, the ground truth provided by laboratory analysis of returned samples is invaluable to determine the fine properties of asteroids and other planetary bodies. We report preliminary results of analyses on returned samples from Ryugu of the particle size distribution, density and porosity, spectral properties and textural properties, and the results of a search for Ca–Al-rich inclusions (CAIs) and chondrules. The bulk sample mainly consists of rugged and smooth particles of millimetre to submillimetre size, confirming that the physical and chemical properties were not altered during the return from the asteroid. The power index of its size distribution is shallower than that of the surface boulder observed on Ryugu11, indicating differences in the returned Ryugu samples. The average of the estimated bulk densities of Ryugu sample particles is 1,282 ± 231 kg m−3, which is lower than that of meteorites12, suggesting a high microporosity down to the millimetre scale, extending centimetre-scale estimates from thermal measurements5,9. The extremely dark optical to near-infrared reflectance and spectral profile with weak absorptions at 2.7 and 3.4 μm imply a carbonaceous composition with indigenous aqueous alteration, matching the global average of Ryugu3,4 and confirming that the sample is representative of the asteroid. Together with the absence of submillimetre CAIs and chondrules, these features indicate that Ryugu is most similar to CI chondrites but has lower albedo, higher porosity and more fragile characteristics.

    SPACE TELESCOPES AND INSTRUMENTATION 2020: ULTRAVIOLET TO GAMMA RAY 11444 2021年  
    GEO-X (GEOspace X-ray imager) is a 50 kg-class small satellite to image the global Earth's magnetosphere in X-rays via solar wind charge exchange emission. A 12U CubeSat will be injected into an elliptical orbit with an apogee distance of similar to 40 Earth radii. In order to observe the diffuse soft X-ray emission in 0.3-2 keV and to verify X-ray imaging of the dayside structures of the magnetosphere such as cusps, magnetosheaths and magnetopauses which are identified statistically by in-situ satellite observations, an original light-weight X-ray imaging spectrometer (similar to 10 kg, similar to 10 W, similar to 10x10x30 cm) will be carried. The payload is composed of a ultra light-weight MEMS Wolter type-I telescope (similar to 4x4 deg(2) FOV, <10 arcmin resolution) and a high speed CMOS sensor with a thin optical blocking filter (similar to 2x2 cm(2), frame rate similar to 20 ms, energy resolution <80 eV FWHM at 0.6 keV). An aimed launch year is 2023-25 corresponding to the 25th solar maximum.

    An anomalously large southward Bz (-23 nT) is detected in association with tailward jet (1600 km/s) by GEOTAIL at X(GSM) = -46 R(E). Variations of MHD parameters suggest that the large southward Bz is caused by piling-up of reconnected field lines by the jet against the standing plasma sheet. In addition, the ion distribution at the time of the large southward Bz is found to show a counter streaming ions (CSI) feature. A hybrid simulation of a reconnection process not only reproduces this feature, but also proves that the CSI ions are from both the lobes. Taking this CSI feature as new kinetic evidence that both the lobes are magnetically connected, we firmly conclude that the event is interpreted in terms of near-Earth reconnection.

    Hybrid code simulations of the MHD scale Kelvin-Helmholtz (K-H) instability have been conducted. In contrast to the homogeneous background case where the large-scale ion mixing across the shear layer occurs inside the vortex obeying the hydrodynamic similarity law, the ion mixing is found to be reduced when the background magnetic field is inhomogeneous. This stabilization effect is twofold: it is an ion kinetic effect which reduces the saturation vortex size and so the mixing length when the shear layer width and the wavelength of the growing mode are small. The reduction effect still works even when the shear layer width/wavelength are large and a well defined vortical motion as in the fluid model is evident. The mixing is suppressed for this case because the ions on the lower magnetic field (magnetosheath) side cannot enter within the vortex island: The rolled-up magnetopause current sheet block them out electrostatically. The geophysical implication of the present result is that the K-H mixing alone may not be as efficient as to produce the large-scale mixing blob of the low-latitude boundary layer (LLBL) when the magnetic field intensity is highly different across the magnetopause.

    The acceleration process of minor heavy ions in the magnetotail reconnection layer is studied by 1D hybrid simulations. In the plasma sheet, different acceleration mechanisms are found to be operative according to the heavy ion mass, not only because of their different inertia but also because of the evolutions of different downstream states. Despite this difference, the ions, including the major protons, are accelerated up to the maximum velocity of twice the lobe Alfven velocity: the energy gain is proportional to the ion mass.

    Hybrid code simulations (ion particles, charge neutralizing electron fluid) of the MHD scale transverse Kelvin-Helmholtz (K-H) instability in a uniform plasma have been conducted. On a macroscopic scale the saturation states are found to be similar to the MHD result, even if the initial shear layer half thickness is as thin as twice the ion thermal Larmor radius. However, as opposed to the conventional belief based on the frozen-in concept that a large-scale mixing will be prohibited, an enhanced mixing of ions across the shear layer is found to occur inside the vortex. The temporal/spatial scales of the mixing process are determined by the fluid dynamical parameters and are anomalously quick/large compared to what can result from the mixing due to the finite Larmor radius overlapping at the interface. We propose that the low latitude boundary layer just inside the magnetopause is the mixing layer formed possibly by this mechanism.
