1695 Walbeck, provisional designation 1941 UO, is a carbonaceous

Turku Observatory in Southwest Finland, and named after Henrik Walbeck.[2][12]

Classification and orbit

The asteroid orbits the Sun in the central main-belt at a distance of 2.0–3.6 AU once every 4 years and 8 months (1,694 days). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.29 and an inclination of 17° with respect to the ecliptic.[1] Walbeck's observation arc begins the night after its official discovery observation.[12]

Physical characteristics

In the

SMASS taxonomy, the carbonaceous asteroid is characterized as a Cg-type, an intermediate between the C-type and G-type asteroids.[1]
