Main-belt asteroids polarimetric survey. II.

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present results of a polarimetric survey of main-belt asteroids at Complejo Astronomico el Leoncito (CASLEO), San Juan, Argentina.

Description

The aims of this survey are to increase the database of asteroid polarimetry, to estimate diversity in polarimetric properties of asteroids that belong to different taxonomic classes, and to search for objects that exhibit anomalous polarimetric properties. The data were obtained with the Torino and CASPROF polarimeters at the 2.15m telescope.

The Torino polarimeter is an instrument that allows simultaneous measurement of polarization in five different bands, and the CASPROF polarimeter is a two-hole aperture polarimeter with rapid modulation.
