Observations of asteroids in the 3- to 4-micron regionSpectra of eleven asteroids (1, 2, 8, 10, 15, 16, 22, 83, 386, 433, 471) have been obtained in the 3- to 4-micron region. Of these, only 1 Ceres and 2 Pallas have previously been observed in this wavelength region. Spectra of the S- and M-type asteroids are generally featureless, but 8 Flora may be an exception. None of the three new C-type spectra show significant absorption.
