论文摘要
我们报告了1000多个NEO的测量光谱特性,占当前发现的人群的5%。检测到低于2.5μm的热通量使我们可以对近50个物体进行反照估计,包括两个彗星。据报道,超过350种火星横穿小行星的其他光谱数据。这些测量大多数是通过马萨诸塞州理工学院与夏威夷大学的研究人员之间的合作,并在Mauna Kea上与NASA红外望远镜设施(IRTF)进行了全面合作。我们称该项目为MIT-HAWAII近地对象光谱调查(Mithneos; Myth-Neos)。
We report measured spectral properties for more than 1000 NEOs, representing>5% of the currently discovered population. Thermal flux detected below 2.5 μm allows us to make albedo estimates for nearly 50 objects, including two comets. Additional spectral data are reported for more than 350 Mars-crossing asteroids. Most of these measurements were achieved through a collaboration between researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of Hawaii, with full cooperation of the NASA Infrared Telescope Facility (IRTF) on Mauna Kea. We call this project the MIT-Hawaii Near-Earth Object Spectroscopic Survey (MITHNEOS; myth-neos).
