We investigated the magnitude-phase relation of (162173) 1999 JU3, a target asteroid for the JAXA Hayabusa 2 sample return mission. We initially employed the international Astronom…
Fast Rotation of a Sub-km-sized Near-Earth Object 2011 XA3
S. Urakawa, K. Ohtsuka, S. Abe +2
We present lightcurve observations and their multiband photometry for near-Earth object (NEO) 2011 XA3. The lightcurve has shown a periodicity of 0.0304 +- 0.0003 day (= 43.8 +- 0.…
