Vilagi, Modra Observatory, report that photometric observations obtained during 2005 Dec. 29-2006 Feb. 2 reveal that minor planet (6084) is a binary system with an orbital period of 43.5 hours. The primary rotates with a period of 2.7454 hours, and it has a lightcurve amplitude of 0.22 mag. Mutual eclipse/occultation events that are 0.12- to 0.18-mag deep indicate a secondary-to-primary mean-diameter ratio of 0.37 +/-0.02. The mean absolute R magnitude of the system is 12.8 +/- 0.1.
