Scientific paper

Reflectance spectroscopy, thermal infrared radiometry, optical polarimetry, speckle interferometry, and high-resolution imagery are among the remote sensing techniques applied to Vesta, producing a sophisticated characterization of this object. Reflectance spectroscopy has provided relatively detailed descriptions of the surface mineralogy of Vesta and has provided critical evidence linking Vesta to the basaltic achondrite meteorites.
