U-Band Photometry of Kuiper Belt Objects
2007
Astronomical Journal
We present U-band photometry of Kuiper Belt objects taken to further investigate their color-orbit systematics. As at longer optical and near-infrared wavelengths, the U-band colors of Kuiper Belt objects show a wide range and a unimodal distribution. We find no evidence that color systematics in the Kuiper Belt are strongly wavelengthdependent. This observation is consistent with control of the reflection characteristics by a single ( but unidentified) reddening material. No evidence is found
