Scientific paper

We report the first results of a new program of asteroid photometry at wavelengths of 1.25, 1.65, and 2.2 mu. In this paper the observations of three asteroids are reduced to spectral reflectance. Ceres and Pallas have surfaces which are probably composed of carbonaceous chondritic-type material. A basaltic achondritic composition remains a good candidate for Vesta.
