Lightcurve and Spin Rates of Earth Co-orbital Asteroids
Abstract
We present photometric optical lightcurves and derived rotation periods for a sample of seven Earth co-orbital asteroids: 2008 WM64 (2.356 ± 0.033 h), 2016 AU8 (4.698 ± 0.013 h), 2000 EE104 (13.324 ± 1.135 h), 2018 EB (2.600 ± 0.437 h), 2014 KZ44 (2.797 ± 0.596 h), 2016 JP (3.288 ± 0.224 h), and 2014 KQ76 (2.953 ± 0.063 h). These observations were carried out at the Bulgarian National Astronomical Observatory - Rozhen using the FoReRo2 instrument attached on the 2mRCC telescope.
