The Asiago-DLR Asteroid Survey is the joint program among the Department of Astronomy and Astronomical Observatory of Padova and the DLR Berlin, dedicated to the search of asteroids. The Minor Planet Center has attributed to ADAS the survey code 209. The project is carried out since the end of December 2000 with the S67/92cm telescope at Asiago - Cima Ekar equipped with the SCAM-1 camera of DLR, in Time Delay Integration mode, in a strip from -5o to +15o around the celestial equator. The camera has a front illuminated Loral chip of 2048x2048 pixels of 15 mu m each, covering a field of 49'x49' with a resolution of 1.4'' pixel-1. This paper presents the main results obtained till March 15, 2002, when the telescope has been closed for a complete overhaul. ADAS will resume presumably at the end of June 2002.

Abstract
The Asiago-DLR Asteroid Survey is the joint program among the Department of Astronomy and Astronomical Observatory of Padova and the DLR Berlin, dedicated to the search of asteroids. The Minor Planet Center has attributed to ADAS the survey code 209. The project is carried out since the end of December 2000 with the S67/92cm telescope at Asiago - Cima Ekar equipped with the SCAM-1 camera of DLR, in Time Delay Integration mode, in a strip from -5o to +15o around the celestial equator. The camera has a front illuminated Loral chip of 2048x2048 pixels of 15 mu m each, covering a field of 49'x49' with a resolution of 1.4'' pixel-1. This paper presents the main results obtained till March 15, 2002, when the telescope has been closed for a complete overhaul. ADAS will resume presumably at the end of June 2002.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
