Analysis of 13 asteroid lightcurves obtained at the Palmer Divide Observatory
Abstract
The lightcurves for the following asteroids were obtained and then analyzed to find the synodic period and amplitude. 321 Florentina: 2.8711±0.0003h, 0.37±0.02m; 787 Moskva: 6.056±0.001h, 0.61±0.02m; 839 Valborg: 10.366±0.005h, 0.14±0.02m; 912 Maritima: 48.43±0.05h, >0.12±0.02m; 1176 Lucidor: 4.0791±0.0006h, 0.06±0.02m; 1862 Apollo: 3.0680±0.0002h, 0.30-1.20±0.02m; 2266 Tchaikovsky: 4.883±0.003h, 0.04±0.01m; 2951 Perepadin: 4.7808±0.0001h, 0.60±0.02m; 5108 Lubeck: 8.769±0.003, 0.43±0.02m; (17864) 1998 KK38: 6.56±0.01h, 0.17±0.02m; (18582) 1997 XK9: 114±10h, 0.94±0.02m; (20231) 1997 YK: 48.2±0.1h, >0.22±0.02m. Asteroid 868 Lova was also observed but its long period is only constrained as >24h.
