Rotation-Resolved Spectroscopy of a Very Young Asteroid, (1270) Datura

(1270) Datura is the largest member of a very young asteroid cluster that was thought to be broken-up 0.45 Myr ago. The light-curve and the rotationresolved reflectance spectra (0.6 μm – 1.0 μm) were observed in order to find “fresh” surface. Our data show no significant spectral variation along the rotation phase. The depth of the 0.95 μm absorption band, which indicates the degree of space we...
