The composition of “ultra-red” TNOs and centaurs

•We present composition predictions for faint TNOs and centaurs.•We analyze ten ultra-red objects making use of photometric data from 0.4 to 4.5μm.•We find evidence linking surface color to methanol or hydrocarbon ices processing. We present an analysis of the colors available for seven trans-neptun...
