Fig. 2

Plot depicting the axial ratios of 724 Ryugu grains. a Distributions of b/a and t/a ratios of Ryugu grains. Grains plotted in shadowed area are the grains with t/a > b/a. b Distributions of B/A and T/A ratios of Ryugu grains; replot of a. Frequency distributions of the ratios are shown outside of the diagram. Mean B/A and T/A ratios are 0.73 and 0.59, respectively. The shape terminology is based on the classification described in Blott and Pye (2008). Typical grains corresponding to each classification are shown in Fig. 4
