Searching for V-type and Q-type Main-Belt Asteroids Based on SDSS Colors
Abstract
Using colors for 43,000 asteroids measured by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, we identify main-belt candidates for V- and Q-class asteroids. We report results of follow-up spectroscopy to confirm/refute V- and Q-type main-belt asteroid candidates.
