Asteroid photometry
Abstract
Photoelectric light curves provide fundamental information about asteroids: rotation periods, pole orientations, shapes, and phase relations, which yield some information about the surface physical properties. This task is to carry on a program of such observations to increase the overall data base, obtain data on newly discovered asteroids, and to observe asteroids which are the subject of other complementary observations, such as occultations, radar, and infrared.
