The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has just completed the first year of the analytical study of samples returned from asteroid Ryugu. These cutting-edge explorations have been undertaken by the six sub-teams of the Initial Analysis Team and two Phase-2 curation teams.
We are pleased to announce that a paper summarizing the research results of the "Stone Analysis Team" from the Hayabusa2 Initial Analysis Team has been published in the US scientific journal "Science" on September 23, 2022.

Title：Formation and evolution of carbonaceous asteroid Ryugu: Direct evidence from return samples

Journal：Science

DOI：10.1126/science.abn8671

Please refer to the Appendix for an outline.

The samples from asteroid Ryugu that were returned to Earth by the Asteroid Explorer Hayabusa2 on December 6, 2020, initially underwent a cataloging description (Phase-1 curation) at the facility established at JAXA’s Institute of Space and Astronautical Science. Part of the returned sample was distributed to the "Hayabusa2 Initial Analysis Team", consisting of six sub-teams and two Phase-2 curation institutes. The initial analysis team is designed to reveal the multifaceted features of the sample through a plan of high-precision analysis, with specialized sub-teams assigned to tackle the science objectives of the Hayabusa2 mission. Meanwhile, the Phase-2 curation institutes have specific specialties that are utilized to catalog the samples based on a comprehensive analysis flow and clarify the potential impact of the sample through measurement and analysis appropriate to the characteristics of the returned particles.

Reports from the six teams involved in the initial analysis, as well as two Phase-2 curation institutes, will be announced separately as the results are published in scientific journals. After all the initial results have been released, a new overall summary of the Hayabusa2 science is planned.

• We found that the samples from asteroid Ryugu contain particles (such as Ca- and Al-rich inclusions¹⁾ that were formed in high-temperature environments (>1000°C). These high-temperature particles are thought to have formed near the Sun and then migrated to the outer Solar System, where Ryugu is thought to have formed. This indicates that large-scale mixing of materials occurred between the inner and outer Solar System at the time of its birth.
• Based on our detection of the magnetic field left in the Ryugu samples, it is highly likely that the original asteroid from which the current Ryugu descended (Ryugu’s parent body²⁾) was born in the darkness of nebular gas³⁾, far from the Sun, where sunlight cannot reach.
• Liquid water trapped in a crystal within the sample was discovered. This water was carbonated water containing salts and organic matter, which was once present in the Ryugu parent body.
• Crystals shaped like coral reefs were growing from the liquid water that existed in the interior of Ryugu's parent body.
• In the parent body of Ryugu, the ratio of water to rock differed between the surface and the interior, with rocks deeper underground containing more water.
• The hardness, heat transfer, and magnetic properties of the samples were measured. The results showed that the Ryugu sample was soft enough to be cut with a knife. The sample also contained magnetic minerals which are like many small magnets and behaving like a natural hard-disk, recording the magnetic field of the past.
• A computer simulation of the process from the birth of the Ryugu parent body to its destruction by a catastrophic impact was performed. This is the first time that measurements of the hardness and thermal diffusivity of actual asteroid samples have been incorporated into a simulation of the formation and evolution of asteroids.
• The simulation shows that the Ryugu parent body accumulated about 2 million years after the formation of the Solar System, and then heated up to about 50°C over the next 3 million years, resulting in chemical reactions between water and rock The size of the impactor that destroyed the Ryugu parent body, which was about 100 km in diameter, was at most 10 km in diameter, and that the present-day Ryugu is composed of material from a region far from the impact point.

A research group led by Professor Nakamura Tomoki at the Graduate School of Science, Tohoku University analyzed samples from the asteroid Ryugu recovered by the Asteroid Explorer Hayabusa2 (17 particles including the third largest sample grain recovered by the spacecraft (Figure 1)) using cosmochemical and physical methods at a number of different universities and institutes, including five synchrotron radiation facilities in Japan, United States, and Europe. As a result, the history of Ryugu from its formation to its collisional destruction (i. e., formation and location in the Solar System, information on the source material, types of ice contained, chemical evolution through reactions with water on the surface and in the interior of the asteroid, effects of collisions, etc.) were determined. The Ryugu samples were found to contain a mixture of material near the surface of the parent body before impact destruction, and material from the interior of the body. The hardness, heat transfer, specific heat, density, etc. of the Ryugu samples were measured, and numerical simulations of the temperature change due to heating in the interior of the parent body and the impact destruction process of the parent body were performed using these measured physical values to reproduce the formation evolution of Ryugu on a computer.

The formation history of Ryugu, as determined from the analysis of these Ryugu samples, can be divided into the six phases shown below. Figure 2 show the results of the numerical simulation using the analysis results.

1. Formation of the Ryugu parent body,
2. Melting of ice due to decay heat from radioactive elements,
3. Progression of water-rock reactions due to further increase in the internal temperature of the parent body,
4. Cooling of the parent body due to depletion of radioactive elements,
5. Destruction of the parent body by a large-scale collision event,
6. Formation of Ryugu by reassembly of rock fragments generated by the collision.

The evidence for each of these stages of formation was obtained from Ryugu samples, as shown below.

• Based on the remnant magnetization in the samples, it is highly likely that Ryugu's parent body was born in the primordial solar nebula³⁾ , which does not exist today. Ryugu was born in the darkness of nebular gas far from the Sun, where sunlight cannot reach.
• The Ryugu parent body was born at an extremely low temperature of -200℃ or lower. In that region, not only water ice but also dry ice (CO₂ ice) existed. The Ryugu parent body was formed by incorporating the rock particles and ice that existed in the region.
• We found particles (such as Ca- and Al-rich inclusions¹⁾) that were formed at high temperatures near the Sun (Figure 3). The newly-born Ryugu contained, in addition to the low-temperature materials (ice and dry ice), a small amount of materials formed at high temperatures near the Sun. These high-temperature particles are thought to have migrated from near the Sun to the outer Solar System. This is evidence of a large-scale mixing of materials between the inner and outer Solar System at the time of its birth.
• The chemical composition of 10 particles of the Ryugu samples (126 mg in total) was determined for light elements using a muon⁴⁾ beam (@J-PARC). The abundance of the light elements nitrogen and carbon is close to that of the most primitive meteorite (CI carbonaceous chondrites), indicating that the elemental abundance of Ryugu is very primitive.

• The raw materials of Ryugu were ice and various aggregates of solid particles (Figures 2 and 4). These raw materials reacted with water and CO₂ in the interior of the parent body (aqueous alteration) to form hydrous silicates and carbonate minerals that make up the majority of the sample. The water temperature during aqueous metamorphism is estimated to have been approximately 25°C based on the stability of the minerals formed during aqueous alteration.
• Liquid water trapped in crystals in the sample was found (Figure 5). The water was held in micron-sized vacancies. Molecular species were determined by mass spectrometry, and the water was carbonated containing salts and organic matter.
• The Ryugu sample was composed of small rock fragments (~1 mm in diameter). The diversity of minerals in these rock fragments can be explained by the different conditions for chemical reactions with water.
• The rock fragments can be divided into two main types: materials formed in environments with a low water content (water/rock mass ratio < 0.2) and materials formed in environments with a high water content (0.2 < water/rock mass ratio < 0.9). The former are rock fragments formed near the surface of the parent body where it was easy to cool, and ice was difficult to melt (Figure 4), and the latter is considered to be material formed in the interior of the parent body. Therefore, the present-day Ryugu contains a mixture of materials from the surface and interior of its parent body.
• In the interior of Ryugu's parent body, tabular coral-like crystals grew from liquid water (Figure 6), suggesting that an environment similar to the Earth's oceans existed in Ryugu's interior.

• Physical properties (hardness, heat transfer, specific heat, density, etc.) of the Ryugu samples were measured. The volume of the samples was precisely determined by synchrotron radiation CT analysis (@SPring-8) with a spatial resolution of less than 1 micron, and the mass was measured in an environment with no atmosphere to avoid the influence of adsorbed water on the samples. The average density of the sample was 1.79 ± 0.08 g/cm3, which is much higher than the density of the entire Ryugu asteroid (1.19 g/cm3). This suggests that interior of Ryugu contains more than 30% of pore spaces.
• The hardness of Ryugu's samples is very low compared with that of igneous rocks on Earth, making them soft. The Ryugu stones were actually easily cut using a blade.
• The Ryugu sample contains a large amount of magnetite, and a characteristic distribution of magnetic field lines (spiral magnetic domain structure: Figure 7) was confirmed in the interior of these crystals. This structure is more stable than ordinary hard disks and can record magnetic fields for more than 4.6 billion years. The magnetic fields inside and around magnetite record the magnetic field at the time when these crystals were formed, and it is highly likely that the solar nebula (with a magnetic field) was present when the Ryugu parent body was formed.

• The authors have succeeded in reproducing the history of Ryugu from the birth of the parent body to the disruption of the parent body via a large-scale collision by modeling the process in a computer. This is the first time that the results of hardness and thermal diffusivity of an actual asteroid sample are used to simulate the formation and evolution of an asteroid.
• A numerical simulation of the temperature change inside the parent asteroid due to the heat of decay of radioactive elements was performed. As a result, we were able to reproduce the process from the formation of the Ryugu parent body in an environment below -200°C about 2 million years after the formation of the Solar System, to the start of the water-rock reaction about 3 million years later, to the maximum temperature (~50°C) reached inside the body about 5 million years later, to the formation of the present Ryugu's constituent materials.
• We performed numerical simulations of the collisional destruction of the parent body of Ryugu. It is thought that Ryugu once belonged to either the Polarna or Eularia family⁵⁾ of asteroid families⁶⁾, and that all asteroids belonging to these families were formed by the destruction of Ryugu's parent body. Based on this inference, the Ryugu parent body would have had a diameter of about 100 km. When another body with a diameter about 1/10th of the parent body collides with the parent body, the parent body is destroyed, forming a body with a maximum diameter of ~50 km (about the same size as Polana and Eularia) and numerous small rock fragments. The present-day Ryugu is thought to have been formed by the reassembly of some rock fragments produced by the collision.
• Simulations of collisional disruption indicate that high pressures and temperatures are reached only near the epicenter of impact (only about 0.2 volume % of the parent body experiences impact pressures of 10 GPa or higher), and the majority of the parent body breaks up without experiencing high pressures and temperatures. We found little evidence of strong impacts in the Ryugu samples. This indicates that the rock fragments that formed the present-day Ryugu are materials that originated distant from the epicenter of the collision with Ryugu's parent body.
• The present-day Ryugu is thought to have been formed through the above processes (Figure 2). Water-bearing asteroids such as Ryugu are more widely distributed in the Solar System than water-free objects. This study shows how such asteroids formed, evolved, were collisionally destroyed to create their present form in the low-temperature region outside Jupiter, far from the Sun. This has provided a pathway to solutions to some of the many unresolved questions regarding the formation of the Solar System.
• This research was supported by Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (20H00188 and 21H00159), of which Nakamura is a principal investigator, and many separate grants to coinvestigators by other agencies.

1. 1) Ca,Al-rich inclusions: The oldest solid particles in the solar system. It is thought to have been formed by condensation from high-temperature nebular gas near the sun during the formation of the solar system.
2. 2) Ryugu parent body: Original asteroid Ryugu at the time of its birth. The diameter is thought to have been about 100 km. This parent body was destroyed to form the current Ryugu.
3. 3) Primordial solar nebula, nebular gas: A disk of gas surrounding the sun that is thought to have existed in the solar system 4.5 billion years ago. It does not exist in the present solar system and is thought to have disappeared early in the formation of the solar system.
4. 4) Muons: Negatively charged particles with a mass about 200 times that of an electron.
5. 5) Asteroid family: Asteroid families are groups of asteroids with similar intrinsic orbital elements such as orbital radius, eccentricity, and inclination. Asteroids belonging to the same family are considered to be a debris group formed by collisional destruction of a common parent body.
