Abstract
⺠23 New near-infrared spectra of B-type asteroids are presented in this work. ⺠A total of 45 B-type asteroids are analyzed. ⺠B-type asteroids show a continuous trend in their near-infrared slopes. ⺠Meteorite analogs change also progressively from hydrated CM2 to dry CK chondrites. ⺠We found a strong correlation between near-infrared slope and aqueous alteration.
