Data Set Overview
=================
The file 'polar.tab' contains the data originally archived in TRIAD
and reported in Morrison & Zellner, Asteroids (T. Gehrels, Ed., The
University of Arizona Press, 1979) [MORRISON&ZELLNER1979]. It
tabulates the reduced values of the polarization curves of the
asteroids, namely minimum polarization, inversion angle, and
polarimetric slope. For a more complete and up-to-date compilation
of asteroid polarimetry, see the Asteroid Polarimetric Database,
archived in PDS in the file 'apd.tab'.
Data
====
The data are included in the file 'polar.tab'.
Modification History
--------------------
This data set was first reviewed and ingested in 1996. It is
updated now only to correct an error in the unit of one parameter.
The units of the parameter 'Pmin' were originally listed as
degrees, but have now been corrected to percent.
