cds-question@unistra.frasteroidsinfrared-photometryabsolute-magnitudePhase curves of small bodies are useful tools to obtain their absolute magnitudes and phase coefficients. The former relates to the object's apparent brightness, while the latter relates to how the light interacts with the surface. Data from multi-wavelength photometric surveys, which usually serendipitously observe small bodies, are becoming the cornerstone of large statistical studies of the Solar System. Nevertheless, to our knowledge, all studies have been carried out in visible wavelengths. We aim to provide the first catalog of absolute magnitudes in near-infrared filters (Y, J, H, and K). We will study the applicability of a non-linear model to these data and compare it with a simple linear model. We compute the absolute magnitudes using two photometric models: the HG12 and the linear model. We employ a combination of Bayesian inference and Monte Carlo sampling to calculate the probability distributions of the absolute magnitudes and their corresponding phase coefficients. We use the combination of four near-infrared photometric catalogs to create our input database. We produced the first catalog of near-infrared magnitudes. We obtained absolute magnitudes for over 10000 objects (with at least one absolute magnitude measured), with about 180 objects having four absolute magnitudes. We confirmed that a linear model that fits the phase curves produces accurate results. Since a linear behavior well describes the curves, fitting to a restricted phase angle range (in particular, larger than 9.5{deg}) does not substantially affect the results. Finally, we also detect a phase-coloring effect in the near-infrared, as observed in visible wavelengths for asteroids and trans-Neptunian objects.2025A&A...701A.231Ahttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/A+A/701/A231CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic servicerelated-toB/astorb : Orbits of Minor Planets (Bowell+, 2014-)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/701/A231https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/701/A231http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/701/A231https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/701/A231https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/701/A231http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/701/A231GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapInfrareddefaultJ/A+A/701/A231/nir-hg12Absolute magnitudes and phase coefficients using the HG12 model (table 2)recnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
