Scientific paper

JHK infrared photometry shows that R asteroids have two distinct
infrared color domains. Most R asteroids have JHK and visual colors and
albedos that fall amongst those observed for S asteroids, but a small
subset is clearly different. These are designated as a new A class of
asteroids.
