For a Few Howardites More: Grand Maps the Elemental Composition of Vesta
Dawn?s Gamma Ray and Neutron Detector (GRaND) successfully completed Low Altitude Mapping Orbit (LAMO) at Vesta. Over four months were spent acquiring data in a 460-km radius orbit around Vesta (265-km mean radius). In LAMO, strong signatures from Vesta were observed for gamma rays and neutrons. We present preliminary abundances, detection limits, and global maps of the elemental composition of Vesta
