“…For this asteroid, colour indices were measured by Betzler & Novaes (2009): (B − V) = 0.84, (V − R) = 0.39 ± 0.02, and (B − R) = 1.23; Hergenrother, Whiteley & Christensen (2009), and Vereshchagina et al (2009), who reported a strong dependence of the shape of the light curve on the colour.…”

“…This spectrum was published by Reddy (2009, Fig .1). Although no taxonomy has been published (in peer-reviewed journals), several taxonomies had been proposed before: from SpeX data: V (Howell et al 2008); from colour indices: S type (Hergenrother et al 2009), A type (Vereshchagina et al 2009;Vereshchagina 2011), and V, Q, or T type (Betzler & Novaes 2009).…”

We present the first attempt to characterize the distribution of taxonomic class among the population of binary asteroids (15 per cent of all small asteroids). For that, an analysis of 0.8-2.5 μm near-infrared spectra obtained with the SpeX instrument on the NASA/IRTF is presented. Taxonomic class and meteorite analogue is determined for each target, increasing the sample of binary asteroids with known taxonomy by 21 per cent. Most binary systems are bound in the S, X, and C classes, followed by Q and V types. The rate of binary systems in each taxonomic class agrees within uncertainty with the background population of small near-Earth objects and inner main belt asteroids, but for the C types which are under-represented among binaries.
