Beschreibung:
Although ordinary chondrite material dominates meteorite falls, the identification of a main-belt asteroid source has remained elusive. From a new survey of more than 80 small main-belt asteroids comes the discovery of one having a visible and near-infrared reflectance spectrum similar to L6 and LL6 ordinary chondrite meteorites. Asteroid 3628 BoZnemcova has an estimated diameter of 7 kilometers and is located in the vicinity of the 3:1 Jovian resonance, a predicted meteorite source region. Although the discovery of a spectral match may indicate the existence of ordinary chondrite material within the main asteroid belt, the paucity of such detections remains an unresolved problem.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Binzel, R P -- Xu, S -- Bus, S J -- Skrutskie, M F -- Meyer, M R -- Knezek, P -- Barker, E S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Dec 3;262(5139):1541-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17829382" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
