2002 Euler is a stony

prov. designation 1973 QQ1. It was named after Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler.[3][9]

Orbit and characterization

Euler is a non-

hierarchical clustering method to its proper orbital elements. It orbits the Sun at a distance of 2.3–2.6 AU once every 3 years and 9 months (1,373 days). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.07 and an inclination of 9° with respect to the ecliptic.[1]

Physical characteristics

Diameter and albedo

According to the surveys carried out by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite

albedo between 0.0416 and 0.0839. The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link adopts Petr Pravec's revised WISE-data, that is, an albedo of 0.0375 and a diameter of 19.78 kilometers with an absolute magnitude of 12.7.[7]
