Sub-Kilometer Asteroid Diameter Survey (SKADS)
The Sub-Kilometer Asteroid Diameter
Survey (SKADS) (Gladman et al. 2009) acquired good-quality orbital and
absolute magnitude (H) determinations for a sample of small main-belt
asteroids in order to study the orbital and size distribution beyond H
= 15, down to sub-kilometer sizes (H > 18). Based on six observing
nights over an 11-night baseline, SKADS detected, measured photometry
for, and linked observations of 1087 asteroids which have one-week
time baselines or more. This data set contains the astrometry,
photometry, and orbits of the 1087 asteroids detected by SKADS.
