Thermally Driven Exfoliation and Particle Ejection on Bennu [#2116]
We will present observations of boulder morphologies on Bennu consistent with exfoliation via thermal fatigue and use models to quantify the expected crack spacing and speed at which particles may be ejected from the surface due this process.

OH/H2O on Near-Earth Asteroids [#2150]
Most near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) are not expected to contain OH/H2O on their surfaces. However, evidence for OH/H2O has now been found on several S-complex NEAs, which has implications for the delivery and retention of OH/H2O in near-Earth space.

Comparison of Ryugu and Bennu Based on Cross Calibration Between ONC-T and MapCam [#2015]
Cross calibration between ONC-T/Hayabusa2 and MapCam/OREx is conducted based on the moon observations. This calibration enables to compare the spectra obtained by two instruments directly. The albedo of Bennu could be brighter than that of Ryugu.

Volatile-Rich Asteroids in the Inner Solar System [#2126]
We show that there are two mechanisms that can place volatile-rich bodies, formed well beyond the snow line, into long-term residence in the inner solar system. This leads to predictions for the composition of samples returned from Bennu and Ryugu.

Bright Spots on Ryugu Observed by ONC-T [#2051]
Asteroid Ryugu has small distinctively bright spots on its surface. We examined the spectra of 21 bright spots ranging ~0.5–2 m in diameter and found that they can be classified into two groups (S- and C- complexes).

Pole Region Observation Campaign on Ryugu [#2091]
We performed the pole region observations with ONC-T and NIRS3. Possible 0.7-µm band absorption is found on both poles. These 0.7-µm band absorption might be related to the space weathering or the thermal metamorphism due to the solar irradiation.
