 note = {Martian meteorite chip samples stored at the National Institute of Polar Research (NIPR) have been studied by a visible and near-infrared (VNIR) spectrometer. Measured spots are about 3 × 2 mm in size, which are clearly marked on photographs of the meteorite chips. Rock types and approximate mineral compositions of studied meteorites have been identified or obtained through this spectral survey with no sample preparation required. This study demonstrates that this kind of spectral survey is effective in classifying and describing Marian meteorites, and that such a VNIR spectrometer on a Mars rover would be useful for identifying these kinds of unaltered Mars rocks. Further studies which utilize a smaller spot size are desired for improving the accuracy of identifying the clasts and mineral phases in the rocks., 国立極地研究所(NIPR)に所蔵されている火星隕石片を可視･近赤外(VNIR)分光器によって調べた。測定点は3×2 mm程度の大きさであり、各隕石片の写真上にそれら測定点を明確に記録した。何らの試料調整も必要もなく、この分光調査によって調べられた隕石の岩石型および大体の鉱物組成が得られた。この研究によって、この類の分光調査が火星隕石を分類･記載する際に有効であること、そして火星ローバー上のそのようなVNIR分光器はこれらの類の新鮮な火星岩石を同定するのに役立つことが示された。それら岩石の岩層および鉱物層を同定する精度を高めるためには、より小さな測定点を用いた更なる研究が望まれる。},
