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.

A total of 87 images were taken over three nights: 2003 July 17, 23, CCD images recorded in July 2003 using a Celestron C- and 24. The data reveal a lightcurve with a 17.80 ± 0.05 h period 14 telescope yielded lightcurves and periods for three and 0.09 mag amplitude. asteroids: 105 Artemis has a period of 17.80 ± 0.05 h and an amplitude of 0.09 mag; 978 Aidamina has a period of 10.099 ± 0.004 h and an amplitude of 0.1 mag; 1103 Sequoia has a period of 3.04 ± 0.01 h and an amplitude of 0.34 mag.

PHOTOMETRIC OBSERVATIONS OF MAIN-BELT were operated at sensor temperature of –15°C and images were ASTEROIDS 1990 PILCHER AND 8443 SVECICA calibrated with dark and flat-field frames. Stephen M. Brincat Both telescopes and cameras were controlled remotely from a Flarestar Observatory (MPC 171) nearby location via Sequence Generator Pro (Binary Star Fl.5/B, George Tayar Street Software). Photometric reduction, lightcurve construction, and San Gwann SGN 3160, MALTA period analyses were done using MPO Canopus software (Warner, [email protected] 2017). Differential aperture photometry was used and photometric measurements were based on the use of comparison stars of near- Winston Grech solar colour that were selected by the Comparison Star Selector Antares Observatory (CSS) utility available through MPO Canopus. Asteroid 76/3, Kent Street magnitudes were based on MPOSC3 catalog supplied with MPO Fgura FGR 1555, MALTA Canopus. (Received: 2017 June 8) 1990 Pilcher is an inner main-belt asteroid that was discovered on 1956 March 9 by K. Reinmuth at Heidelberg. Also known as 1956 We report on photometric observations of two main-belt EE, this asteroid was named in honor of Frederick Pilcher, asteroids, 1990 Pilcher and 8443 Svecica, that were associate professor of physics at Illinois College, Jacksonville acquired from 2017 March to May. We found the (Illinois), who has promoted extensively, the interest in minor synodic rotation period of 1990 Pilcher as 2.842 ± planets among amateur astronomers (Schmadel & Schmadel, 0.001 h and amplitude of 0.08 ± 0.03 mag and of 8443 1992).

Kevin Ivarsen In general we selected asteroids that did not have periods listed in Sarah Willis an October 2003 revision of the list of Harris (2003) and that Laura Ingleby would be near opposition at the time of observation. At the Dan Matthews beginning of this project, eleven of the asteroids had undetermined Melanie Simet periods. However, by the project’s completion asteroids 1645 Waterfield and 228 Agathe were being studied by other Department of Physics and Astronomy astronomers as posted on the CALL website Van Allen Hall (http://www.minorplanetobserver.com/astlc/default.htm). Monson University of Iowa (2004) presents a preliminary period determination for 1645 Iowa City, IA 52242 Waterfield that agrees with our data. No result for 228 had been [email protected] released at the time this paper was reviewed. (Received: 17 November Revised: 15 February) To ensure the quality and accuracy of our experimental method, we observed four asteroids with existing entries in the Harris list and confirmed their periods. These asteroids are 174 Phaedra, 354 We have determined the periods of fifteen minor planets Eleonora, 575 Renate, and 1084 Tamariwa. Asteroid 1084 using differential photometry. Eleven of these minor Tamariwa previously had two reported periods of 6.153 hours and planets had unknown periods, one had an uncertain 7.08 hours.

  • Ccd Photometry of Asteroids at Rozhen National Astronomical Observatory from 2001 to 2003
    CCD PHOTOMETRY OF ASTEROIDS AT ROZHEN NATIONAL ASTRONOMICAL OBSERVATORY FROM 2001 TO 2003 Gordana Apostolovska*, Violeta Ivanova, Galin Borisov and Bonka Bilkina *Institute of Physics, Faculty of Natural Sciences, 1000, Skopje, Republic of Macedonia, Institute of Astronomy, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, BG-1786 Sofia, Bulgaria Abstract The research is based on CCD photometric observations performed at Rozhen National Observatory, Bulgaria, in the period from 2001 to 2003. The photometric observations were made with a 0.5m/0.7m Schmidt telescope using a ST-8E CCD and with a 2m RCC telescope using a CCD camera Photometrics. The results from the photometric research are differential lightcurves of more than ten asteroids. For the first time the synodic periods of rotation for nine asteroids were determined and for five asteroids, the mean values of the color indexes were calculated. The mean values of the color indices for (300) Geraldina, (1011) Laodamia and (3443) Leetsungdao are presented. The results gathered by photometric observation contribute to the enlargement of the database for rotational characteristics of the asteroids and their classification. These, together with the CCD observations of the asteroids from their next oppositions are expected to contribute in the search for the position of the poles, and the shape of asteroids. Introduction The importance of studying the asteroids could be attributed to two main reasons. The first main reason is that asteroids are considered to hold the key for understanding of the Solar system creation. Knowing the physical characteristics, the distribution and the evolution of asteroids is crucial for the understanding of the processes by which the planets were formed.
