What are the P-type Asteroids Made Of?
The P-type asteroids, together with the D asteroids, had been believed to be one of the most primitive asteroid classes having surface materials rich in carbon and/or organics. Upon a fall of a new type of meteorite, Tagish Lake in 2000, we came to have a possible sample of the D (and/or T) asteroids. In both spectrally and distance from the sun, the P asteroids are located in between the C/G/B/F asteroids and the D asteroids. Because it is believed that the former group are similar to (thermally metamorphosed) CI/CM chondrites and the latter the Tagish Lake meteorite, the surface material of the P asteroids may be understood in combination of those two meteorite groups. Taking that direction, this paper presents possibly the first quantitative characterization of the P asteroids in terms of carbonaceous chondrites and their experimental derivatives.
