Multi-wavelength study of activated asteroid (596) Scheila.
(596) Scheila is a large primitive asteroid observed with a comet-like apearence last December. We present near-infrared spectra (0.8-2.4 μm) obtained at different rotational phases, covering a whole rotation period of the object after the ejection event, a spectrum in the 2.2-4.0 μm region obtained in 2007, and mid-infrared photometry measured by
Licandro, J. et al.
