Asteroid 65 Cybele: Detection Of Small Silicate Grains, Water-Ice And Organics
We have carried out a spectroscopic study of asteroid 65 Cybele in the 2 - 4 μm and 5 - 14 μm regions, using NASA's IRTF and Spitzer Space Telescope, respectively. We compare these spectra with those of Trojan asteroids and asteroid 24 Themis. Our target is the largest member of the Cybele population; these asteroids represent a transition group
