Asteroid Families?
Is there any good information on the various asteroid families online?
I can only find basic information that there are families at particular Jovian resonances, but no information on particulars. Searching only gets me the Trojans and Trans-Neptunians. Years ago, I saw an article in one of the journals giving names to each group, and its members. But anything else just at best mentions the Flora family alone without giving any details. |
