Descripción
In this paper we present new results obtained from our spectroscopic
survey of near-Earth objects (called SINEO). We show a set of 36 visible
and near-infrared spectra, recorded with the 3.5-m Italian Telescopio
Nazionale Galileo at La Palma (Canary Island). We discuss their
taxonomic classification (resulting in 25 objects belonging to the
S-complex, five to the C-complex and six to the X-complex), and their
overall compositional linkage with the principal source of near-Earth
objects, namely the Main Belt. Moreover, for some near-Earth objects we
found good spectral fit among meteorites. In particular, we achieved an
excellent fit for chondrites of different clans. Finally, we discuss the
influences of space weathering among small S-type near-Earth objects.
