Near-Earth Asteroid Lightcurve Analysis at the Center for Solar System Studies: 2022 March-June
Abstract
CCD photometry of 11 near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) obtained at the Center for Solar System Studies (CS3) in 2022 March to June were analyzed for rotation period, peak-to-peak amplitude, and signs of satellites or tumbling. While there were no signs of any of the asteroids being binary, seven of them are suspected tumblers: (10302) 1989 ML, (100756) 1998 FM5, (163692) 2003 CY18, (388945) 2008 TZ3, (464798) 2004 JX20, and 2018 XV5.
