VII/91 IRAS Asteroid and Comet Survey (Veeder+ 1986)
================================================================================
Infrared Astronomical Satellite Asteroid and Comet Survey
Veeder G.J., Walker R.G.
<IRAS Asteroid and Comet Survey, IPAC, JPL D-3698, 1986>
================================================================================
ADC_Keywords: Asteroids ; Comets
Mission_Name: IRAS
Description:
The main purpose of the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) was
to survey the sky in four infrared wavelength bands centered at 12,
25, 60 and 100 um. Data for 25 comets, 1811 known asteroids and
~TBD asteroids without orbits were obtained and accepted into this
IRAS asteroid and comet catalog, which is the largest, least biased
and most uniform survey of asteroids and comets. For the IRAS
Asteroid Survey, 7,015 sightings from 1,811 individual asteroids
that were of sufficient quality have been accepted into the asteroid
catalog. Diameters, albedos and various technical parameters have been
derived for these minor planet. The IRAS comet catalog contains the
detection history for each comet reliably detected in the ADAS search.
Positions were searched for all periodic comets that passed near the
sun or earth during the period from 1982 to 1985 plus all comets that
were observed during that period.
