Tedesco, EdwardTerraSystems, Inc.AST 99-73057Dr. Tedesco will produce an updated, standardized asteroid albedos - diameter database by using new data extracted from the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) database and recently available observations obtained with the Midcourse Space Experiment (MSX) satellite's infrared radiometer. The larger sample provided by the database will lead to a better characterization of the properties of small main-belt asteroids and provide constraints for models of the origin and evolution of the asteroid belt. The database will be made available to the community through published papers and inclusion in the Astrophysics Data Center's database and the Planetary Data Center's Small Bodies Node.

Tedesco，EdwardTerraSystems，Inc.AST 99-73057 R.Tedesco将利用从红外天文卫星(IRAS)数据库提取的新数据和中途空间实验(MSX)卫星的红外辐射计最近获得的观测数据，生成一个更新的、标准化的小行星反照率直径数据库。数据库提供的更大样本将导致更好地描述主带小行星的性质，并为小行星带起源和演化的模型提供约束。该数据库将通过发表论文和纳入天体物理数据中心的数据库和行星数据中心的小天体节点向社区提供。
