We investigate the spin up of nonspherical asteroids by successive random collisions with other smaller asteroids. The spin-up rates are calculated for ellipsoidal and spherical bodies of the same mass. Then, we derive the relative spin-up efficiency, that is, the ratio of the spin-up rate of the el
We present a composite spectrum of Trojan asteroid 624 Hektor, 0.3-3.6 Β΅m, and models computed for the full wavelength range with the Hapke scattering theory. The data show that there is no discernible 3-Β΅m absorption band. Such a band would indicate the presence of OH -or H 2 O-bearing silicate min
