Dear All,
Text sent to the MPC:
We obtained optical spectra of 2008 TC3 using the 4.2m William
Herschel Telescope and ISIS spectrograph on Oct 6.93-6.94UT.
The spectra cover the range 546-995nm at a resolution of 4nm. Initial
analysis of the spectra via comparison with the solar analogue
16CygB reveals a featureless reflectance spectrum with no indication
of the silicate absorption feature longward of 800nm.
All the best,
