The Bimodal Colors of Centaurs and Small Kuiper Belt Objects
Nuno Peixinho, Audrey Delsanti, Aurélie Guilbert-Lepoutre +2
Ever since the very first photometric studies of Centaurs and Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs) their visible color distribution has been controversial. That controversy gave rise to a pr…
