Current State-of-the-Art 1459 Magnya H 2 O V mag = 15.7 H 2 O Hardersen et al. (2004) Unsmoothed, unedited average spectrum. This should be the current expectation for NIR asteroid spectra.
Observational Methodologies Standard star (S) observations interspersed with asteroid (A) observations. 5S 10A 5S 10A 5S 10A 5S Allows extinction coefficients to be calculated (slopes). Slope & intercept allows flux of star to be calculated at each channel at the same airmass as each asteroid observation. Dividing the raw asteroid flux curve by the calculated star flux curve removes the atmospheric absorptions. A slope-intercept pair for each channel
