Diameter and albedo
According to the surveys carried out by the Japanese
albedo between 0.055 and 0.093.[4][5][6] The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes a standard albedo for carbonaceous asteroids of 0.057 and calculates a diameter of 27.90 kilometers based on an absolute magnitude of 11.5.[3]
