1062 Ljuba, provisional designation 1925 TD, is a carbonaceous background
rotation period of 33.8 hours.[4]
Orbit and classification
Ljuba is a non-
semi-major axis of 3 AU). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.07 and an inclination of 6° with respect to the ecliptic.[3]
The asteroid was first observed as A904 TB at
Heidelberg Observatory in October 1904. The body's observation arc also begins at Heidelberg in February 1929, or 16 months after its official discovery observation at Simeiz.[1]
Physical characteristics
In the
Tholen classification, Ljuba is a carbonaceous C-type asteroid.[4]
Rotation period
In October 2003, a rotational
, Ljuba's period is significantly longer than that for most other asteroids, which rotate every 2–20 hours once around their axis.Diameter and albedo
According to the surveys carried out by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite
The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link adopts the results obtained by IRAS, that is, an albedo of 0.0668 and a diameter of 55.10 kilometers based on an absolute magnitude of 9.85.[4]
Naming
This
(1086) were also named after Soviet female paratroopers, namely, Tamara Ivanova (1912–1936) and Nata Babushkina (1915–1936), respectively.[2]
