Scientific paper

A correlation between membership in a dynamically defined asteroid family and membership in a given asteroid spectral class is sought. Examination of 10 families each with five or more classified members indicates a correlation for the 4 families whose existence is best established, and no correlation for the remaining 6 families. This conclusion supports the break-up hypothesis for the origin of some families, while not contradicting that hypothesis for any family.
