Lightcurve Analysis for Minor Planets 1322 Coppernicus and 9148 Boriszaitsev
Abstract
From 2017 March 16 to 2017 June 23, CCD images were taken with the aim to measure the rotation period of 1322 Coppernicus and 9148 Boriszaitsev. The data analysis gives a lightcurve with a rotation period of 8.125 ± 0.009 hours for Boriszaitsev, in agreement with other measurement recently published. On the contrary, the rotation period of 4.354 ± 0.005 measured for 1322 Coppernicus is rather different than the previous data collected in 1991 and 2006.
