Size and albedo distributions of asteroids in cometary orbits using WISE data

Context. Determining whether asteroids in cometary orbits (ACOs) are dormant or extinct comets is relevant for understanding the end-states of comets and the sizes of the comet population. Aims. We intend to study the value distributions of effective diameter (D), beaming parameter (η), and visible...
