The Eight-Color Asteroid Survey: Results for 589 Minor Planets

Abstract Results are presented from reflection spectrophotometry of 589 minor planets in a photometric system using eight filter passbands ranging from 0.34- to 1.04-μm wavelength. The sampling completeness approaches or exceeds 50% of the numbered asteroids for the near-Earth objects, the Hungarias, the Nysa family, the Cybeles, the Hildas, and the Trojans. The general evolution of predominant compositional type from S to C to D with increasing heliocentric distance is evident, as is the spectral homogeneity of the Eos, Koronis, Nysa, and Themis families.
