Le Creusot Observatory in France. The asteroid was named after the German industrial metal band Rammstein.[2]

Orbit and classification

Rammstein is a non-

semi-major axis of 2.71 AU). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.09 and an inclination of 12° with respect to the ecliptic.[1]

The body's observation arc begins with its first observation made by LONEOS at Lowell Observatory in September 2001, less than a month prior to its official discovery observation at Le Creusot.[2] A telescope is required to see Rammstein, as its maximum brightness is 148193 of the brightness of the faintest objects that can be seen with the unaided eye.[5]

Physical characteristics

The asteroid's

spectral type is unknown.[1]

Diameter and albedo

Rammstein has not been observed by any of the space-based surveys such as the Infrared Astronomical Satellite

mean diameter to be between 3 and 6 kilometers.[5]

Rotation period

As of 2018, no rotational

rotation period, shape and poles remain unknown.[1][6]
