(Received: 13 March) CCD photometry of asteroid 22 Kalliope taken at Tubitak National Observatory during November 2006 is reported. A rotational period of 4.149 ± 0.0003 hours and amplitude of 0.386 mag at Johnson B filter, 0.342 mag at Johnson V are determined. The observation of 22 Kalliope was made at Tubitak National Observatory located at an elevation of 2500m. For this study, the 410mm f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope was used with a SBIG ST-8E CCD electronic imager. Data were collected on 2006 November 27. 305 images were obtained for each Johnson B and V filters. Exposure times were chosen as 30s for filter B and 15s for filter V. All images were calibrated using dark and bias frames Figure 1. Lightcurve of 22 Kalliope for Johnson B filter. X axis is and sky flats. JD-2454067.00. Ordinate is relative magnitude. During this observation, Kalliope was 99.26% illuminated and the phase angle was 9º.87 (Guide 8.0). Times of observation were light-time corrected.

SECTION NEWS: COLLABORATIVE ASTEROID PHOTOMETRY FOR STAFFING CHANGES FOR ASTEROID 2051 CHANG THE MINOR PLANET BULLETIN Alessandro Marchini Frederick Pilcher Astronomical Observatory, DSFTA - University of Siena (K54) Minor Planets Section Recorder Via Roma 56, 53100 - Siena, ITALY [email protected] [email protected] One staffing change and one staffing addition for The Minor Planet Bulletin are announced effective with this issue. Riccardo Papini, Massimo Banfi, Fabio Salvaggio Wild Boar Remote Observatory (K49) MPB Distributor Derald Nye is now retired from his 37 years of San Casciano in Val di Pesa (FI), ITALY service to the Minor Planets Bulletin. Derald stepped in to service at the time the MPB made its transition from the original Editor Melissa N. Hayes-Gehrke, Eric Yates and Section founder, Richard G. Hodgson. As Derald reflected in Department of Astronomy, University of Maryland a short essay written in MPB 40, page 53 (2013), the Distributor College Park, MD, USA 20740 position was the longest job he ever held, having retired from being a programmer for 30 years with IBM. (Work for IBM (Received: 2019 October 15) included programming for the space program.) At its peak, Derald was managing nearly 200 subscriptions. That number dropped to Photometric observations of this main-belt asteroid were the dozen or so libraries maintaining a permanent collection conducted in order to determine its rotation period.

ADDITIONAL LIGHTCURVES OF 165 LORELEY of trial periods correspond to possible synodic rotation periods. In this analysis all periods between 6 and 15 hours, at intervals of Frederick Pilcher 0.001 hour, had rms deviations computed. Lightcurves phased to Illinois College each of a large number of periods with local rms minima were Jacksonville, IL 62650 USA plotted and inspected visually for goodness of fit. Periods of [email protected] 7.224 hours, 9.632 hours, 13.515 hours, and 14.448 hours, all ± 0.001 hours, provided nearly identical rms errors and comparably Don C.

Pleasant Plains, IL 62677 USA Hence this study by itself does not obtain a unique determination (Received: 26 April Revised: 12 August) of the synodic rotation period. Harris (2006) stated that he considered a 7.223 hour period to have reliability 3 (secure). Our Lightcurves of 165 Loreley obtained on three nights in 7.224 hour period is consistent with this one, and the accompanying figure is phased to 7.224 hours. early 2006 can be satisfied by several different rotation periods, one of which, 7.224 hours, is consistent with The authors express their thanks to Brian D.
