Scientific paper

Using the SpeXs instrument on the NASA IRTF we have observed the rotational reflectance spectra over 0.8-2.5 microns at high signal to noise for several main asteroid belt S-class objects including 14 Irene, 25 Phocaea, 29 Amphitrite, 34 Circe, 37 Fides, 389 Idustria, 532 Herculina, and 599 Luisa. Each asteroid was observed over a minimum of 60 degrees of rotational phase and data from each phase is compared to determine spectral or mineralogical variation between hemispheres. The results from these observations will be presented.
