2349 Kurchenko, provisional designation 1970 OG, is a background
rotation period of 8.6 hours and possibly a spherical shape.[4]
Orbit and classification
Kurchenko is a non-
semi-major axis of 2.77 AU). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.12 and an inclination of 17° with respect to the ecliptic.[3] The body's observation arc begins with its observation as 1957 WM1 at Goethe Link Observatory in November 1957, almost 13 years prior to its official discovery observation at Nauchnij.[1]
- Occultation
On 19 October 2008, the asteroid
occulted the star TYC 0160-01337-1. All five observers reported a negative result.[12]
Physical characteristics
In the
SMASS classification, Kurchenko is an Xc-subtype that transitions between the X-type and the carbonaceous C-type asteroids.[3] It is also an assumed C-type.[4]
Rotation period
In April 2010, a rotational
U=2).[10]
Diameter and albedo
According to the surveys carried out by the Japanese
The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes a standard albedo for a carbonaceous asteroid of 0.057 and calculates a diameter of 27.34 kilometers based on an absolute magnitude of 11.54.[4]
