We present an asteroidal catalog from the mid-infrared wavelength region using the slow-scan observation mode obtained by the Infrared Camera (IRC) on-board the Japanese infrared satellite AKARI. An archive of IRC slow-scan observations comprising about 1000 images was used to search for serendipitous encounters of known asteroids. We have determined the geometric albedos and diameters for 88 main-belt asteroids, including two asteroids in the Hilda region, and compared these, where possible, with previously published values. Approximately one-third of the acquired data reflects new asteroidal information. Some bodies classified as C or D-type with high albedo were also identified in the catalog.
The AKARI Infrared Astronomical Satellite observed the whole sky in the far infrared (50-180{mu}m) and the mid-infrared (9 and 18{mu}m) between May 2006 and August 2007 (Murakami et al. 2007PASJ...59S.369M). The Asteroid catalog using AKARI (AcuA) version 1.0 is the first asteroid catalog produced based on the AKARI/IRC Mid-Infrared Survey. The catalog provides the size and albedo of 5120 asteroids.
