A newly revised estimation of bulk densities and examination of the shape of individual Ryugu grains
The bulk density of grains from a celestial body is a fundamental property related to its composition and structure, contributing to the understanding of its evolutionary history. In this study, we provide the bulk density of 637 grains returned from the C-type near-Earth asteroid 162173 Ryugu. This...

The bulk density of grains from a celestial body is a fundamental property related to its composition and structure, contributing to the understanding of its evolutionary history. In this study, we provide the bulk density of 637 grains returned from the C-type near-Earth asteroid 162173 Ryugu. This is the largest number of grains to date for the curation activity, corresponding to 38 wt.% of the total returned samples (approximately 5.4 g). Although several densities of the Ryugu grains were reported, the volume estimation of some samples showed uncertainties. Therefore, we applied a new volume estimation model calibrated by X-ray micro-computed tomography (XCT) to the Ryugu grains to more accurately estimate their bulk density. The obtained average bulk density of 637 Ryugu grains was 1.79 +/- 0.31 g/cm3 (1 sigma variation) for weights of 0.5-100 mg (sub-mm -to 10 mm) irrespective of their 3D shapes characterized by three axial length ratios, considered to be a representative of the returned samples.
