Near-Earth and Mars-Crosser Asteroids Spectroscopic Survey (NEMCASS)

This survey includes visible and near-infrared spectroscopic data of a total of 74 NEAs and MCs, obtained during 28 observational nights, using two telescopes located at the "El Roque de los Muchachos" Observatory (Canary Islands, Spain).

Researchers utilizing these data are kindly asked to cite the following publication:

de León, J., Licandro, J., Serra-Ricart, M., Pinilla-Alonso, N., Campins, H. 2010, A&A, 517, A23 (Download pdf)

See details on the data obtention and reduction processes in the above mentioned paper.

List of observed asteroids

Here is a table with the observed near-Earth (NEAs) and Mars-crossers (MCs), included in de León et al. (2010). We show the asteroid number and name, the spectral range of the data, and the dynamical group. To see a plot of the object's spectrum click on its name.
