Scientific paper

We report our findings on asteroid phase curves based on processing large amount of photometric data contained in the Lowell Observatory photometric database [1, 2]. We fitted phase curves [3] to about half a million asteroids contained in the database. We found homogeneity in G12 slope parameters [1] in asteroid families and correlation of G12 with asteroid taxonomic complexes [2]. We predict taxonomic complex preponderance in asteroid families based on G12 slope parameters and compare our results with those available in the literature.
