Data Set Abstract |
The Asteroid Polarimetric Database (APD) is compiled by Dmitrij
Lupishko of Kharkov University. This database tabulates the
original data comprising degree of polarization as a function of
phase angle of the asteroid, and additional parameters where
available. This data set, together with 'polar.tab'
containing the TRIAD polarimetry, includes most if not all
existing asteroid polarimetry data published by 1998. The APD is
an ongoing compilation and this data set will be updated yearly. |
