Predicted and measured spectral energy distribution (SED) of the Didymos–Dimorphos system. The black (solid) and red (dashed) lines illustrate the predicted SED (i.e., with no impact or dust) for 2022 September 27 and 2022 October 6, respectively. The blue and red diamonds represent the measured SED at 8.7, 10.5, and 11.7 μm for September 27 and October 6, respectively. The dashed–dotted blue line shows the best-fit SED for the Didymos–Dimorphos system 11 hr after the DART impact.
