Data Set Overview : This collection of asteroid masses and densities has been compiled from the published literature by Jim Baer, Steve Chesley, and Dan Britt. It also includes asteroid size and shape information, also collected from the published literature. The version included in this data set is dated Dec. 15, 2010. This data set supersedes the older PDS Asteroid Densities data set, EAR-A-5-DDR-ASTEROID-DENSITIES-V1.1. In addition to the asteroid mass and density file, astmass11.tab, the file astmassrefs11.tab lists the full references of the published sources of the mass and size data. Only published values are included; a few unpublished values included in the original file have been removed. In addition to asteroids, entries for the Pluto/Charon/Nix/Hydra system are included. For comet masses, see the data set Properties of Comet Nuclei, EAR-C-COMPIL-5-COMET-NUC-PROPERTIES-V1.0. Since the cited publication Standish (2001) is of limited availability, it has been provided in the document directory of this data set with permission from the author. Standish, E. M., Suggested GM values for Ceres, Pallas, and Vesta, JPL Interoffice Memorandum 312.F-01-006, April 11, 2001. [Standish2001]
