VizieR Online Data Catalog: PCF, SpecB or SDSSB asteroids parameters (Ali-Lagoa+, 2016)

The table contains the best-fitting values of size and beaming parameter and corresponding visible geometric albedos for all our objects. We fitted the near-Earth asteroid thermal model of Harris (1998Icar..131..291H) to WISE/NEOWISE thermal infrared data (see, e.g., Mainzer et al., 2011ApJ...736..100M and Masiero et al., 2014ApJ...791..121M). Minimum relative errors of 10, 15, and 20 percent should be considered for size, beaming parameter and albedo in those cases for which the beaming parameter could be fitted. Otherwise, a default value of the beaming parameter is assumed (its negative value is given in the table) and the minimum relative errors in size and albedo increase to 20 and 40 percent (see, e.g., Mainzer et al., 2011ApJ...736..100M).

We also provide the asteroid absolute magnitudes and slope parameters retrieved from the Minor Planet Center (MPC), the number of observations used in each WISE band (W3 and W4), plus the corresponding average values of heliocentric and geocentric distances and phase angle (r, g, a) based on the ephemerides taken from the MIRIADE service (http://vo.imcce.fr/webservices/miriade/?ephemph). The subsample label indicates whether the object belongs to the SDSS, spectroscopic B or PCF groups. Labels with the suffix 'qA' indicate that only data with signal-to- noise ratio greater than 10 were used for that case (see Appendix A of the article for more details).
