Abstracts for fall meeting of the Japanese Society for Planetary Science, 2007 107-107, 2007The Hayabusa spacecraft, which was launched in May 2003, arrived at Asteroid Ito-kawa in September 2005, and it made observations of Itokawa and tried touch down in about three months.Hayabusa has four scientific instruments, that is Multi-Spectral Telescopic Imager (AMICA), Laser Altimeter (LIDAR), Near-Infrared Spectrometer (NIRS), and X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometer (XRS). The data obtained by these instruments were firstly analyzed by Hayabusa Science Team and some of the results have been pub-lished as scientific papers. At the same time, the science team was preparing to open them to the public and this work has almost been done. Therefore the science team release the data archives to public from April 24, 2007. All the scientific data that Hayabusa obtained are open to the public.The Hayabusa data archives can be accessed from the following web site:(URL) http://hayabusa.sci.isas.jaxa.jp/

日本惑星科学会秋季講演会予稿集, 2007 133-133, 2007Analytical procedure and method is under development for the X-Ray Spectrometer onboard SELENE(Kaguya). We present the system in detail. Furterhmore, we investigate the datainterpretation for XRF, including the surface microscopic and macroscopic roughness as well as mineral mixing effects. For a daily automatic analysis for huge amount of data, correction equations for ther effects are necessary to be defined. We also present the currect status of the correction method.

日本惑星科学会秋季講演会予稿集, 2006 96-76, 2006XRS (x-ray spectrometer) onboard Hayabusa has observed x-ray fluorescence from near-Earth asteroid 25143 Itokawa to determine major elemental composition. Okada et al. (2006) reported average elemental mass ratios of Mg/Si = 0.78 + - 0.09 and Al/Si = 0.07 + - 0.03. In this study, we attempted to estimate upper limits of Ca and Fe. To discussion about abundance of Ca and Fe, we need to integrate data longer time, fallowing the result of numerical simulation. In this poster, we report a result and the method of the analyses.

Abstracts Fall Meeting of the Japanese Society for Planetary Sciences, 2001 28-28, Oct 6, 2001We are developing an X-Ray fluorescence Spectrometer (XRS) onboard the asteroid probe MUSES-C. Variation of solar X-rays must be considered to analyze major elements quantitatively. XRS observes solar X-rays indirectly using a standard sample. Therefore X-rays from a planetary surface can be calibrated with those from a standard sample in addition to investigation of the spectra and intensities of solar X-rays. We make a model of solar X-ray flux and simulate X-rays observed from a standard sample under various solar conditions. We estimate inversely solar X-rays with calculated emissions and investigate suitable integration times.

Abstracts Fall Meeting of the Japanese Society for Planetary Sciences, 2001 84-84, Oct 6, 2001We are developing an X-Ray fluorescence Spectrometer (XRS) onboard the asteroid probe MUSES-C. XRS contains 5 CCD chips. XRS will not carry in-flight calibration sources. Therefore we will observe cosmic X-ray objects for the calibration with XRS during the cruise. We performed numerical simulation of observing some known X-ray objects. Those simulations were run with exposure time about 3 hours, based on the best-fit models to the ASCA SIS spectra.
