Description:The data related to the paper of Geem et al. (2024, A&A), "Study of hydrated asteroids via their polarimetric properties at low phase angles". This Zenodo contains 1) ReadMe, 2) a database of observational properties of carbonaceous or dark asteroids (e.g., polarimetric, spectroscopic, and photometric measurements) we analyzed in Geem et al. 2024, 3) Nightly averaged polarimetric results, 4) Polarization curve images of the asteroids we observed, 5) the polarimetric observation circumstance, and 6) the polarimetric data taken by Pirka/MSI and Kanata/WFSG2 during 2020~2023 and analyzed in Geem et al. 2024. This data is pre-processed (i.e., Bias subtraction, Dome flat correction).If you need raw data or have any questions, please contact Jooyeon Geem (ksky0422@gmail.com). Abstract:Context. Ch-type asteroids are distinctive among other dark asteroids in that they exhibit deep negative polarization branches (NPBs). Nevertheless, the physical and compositional properties that cause their polarimetric distinctiveness are less investigated.Aims. We aim to investigate the polarimetric uniqueness of Ch-type asteroids by making databases of various observational quantities (i.e., spectroscopic and photometric properties as well as polarimetric ones) of dark asteroids.Methods. We conducted an intensive polarimetric survey of 52 dark asteroids (including 31 Ch-type asteroids) in the RC-band to increase the size of polarimetric samples. The observed data are compiled with previous polarimetric, spectroscopic, and photometric archival data to find their correlations.Results. We find remarkable correlations between these observed quantities, particularly the depth of NPBs and their spectroscopic features associated with the hydrated minerals. The amplitude of the opposition effect in photometric properties also shows correlations with polarimetric and spectral properties. However, these observed quantities do not show noticeable correlations with the geometric albedo, thermal inertia, and diameter of asteroids.Conclusions. Based on the observational evidence, we arrive at our conclusion that the submicrometer-sized structures (fibrous or flaky puff pastry-like structures in phyllosilicates) in the regolith particles could contribute to the distinctive NPBs of hydrated asteroids.
