Scientific paper

We have obtained optical (0.4-0.8 mu m) and near-infrared (1.0-2.5 mu m) reflectance spectra of the Kuiper Belt object 1996 TL66. The spectra show no evidence for absorption features and are neutral across the full wavelength range. The spectrum of TL66 is thus similar to that of the Centaur Chiron but different from that of the Centaur Pholus. It also bears no resemblance to the spectrum of the Kuiper Belt object 1993 SC reported by Brown et al. (1997).
