Observational Characterization of Main-belt Comet and Candidate Main-belt Comet Nuclei

We report observations of nine main-belt comets (MBCs) or candidate MBCs, most of which were obtained when the targets were apparently inactive. We find effective nucleus radii (assuming albedos of p _V = 0.05 ± 0.02) of r _n = (0.24 ± 0.05) km for 238P/Read, r _n = (0.9 ± 0.2) km for 313P/Gibbs, r...
