Physical studies of asteroids. XIX - Phase relations and composite lightcurves obtained with the Carlsberg Meridian Circle
Abstract
Data on 37 asteroids obtained with the Carlsberg Automatic Meridian Circle at La Palma have been used to obtain the photometric parameters G and H and to draw phase diagrams. This supplements data on 51 asteroids (Lagerkvist and Williams, 1987) and on 31 asteroids (Lagerkvist et al., 1988) using the same techniques. Synodic periods were obtained for six asteroids, and composite light curves drawn. For 10 Hygiea the present value of 17.5 is different from that of Vesely and Taylor (1985) but in agreement with the result reported by Harris and Young (1983).
