The visible and near-infrared spectra of asteroids in cometary orbits
Context. Dynamical and albedo properties suggest that asteroids in cometary orbits (ACOs) are dormant or extinct comets. Their study provides new insights for understanding the end-states of comets and the size of the comet population. Aims: We intend to study the visible and near-infrared (NIR) spectral properties of different ACO populations and
