2661 Bydžovský, provisional designation 1982 FC1, is an asteroid from the outer region of the asteroid belt, approximately 30 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered on 23 March 1982, by Czech astronomer Zdeňka Vávrová at the South Bohemian Kleť Observatory in the Czech Republic.[4] The asteroid was named after mathematician Bohumil Bydžovský.[2]
Orbit and classification
Bydžovský orbits the Sun in the
Heidelberg Observatory in 1950, extending the body's observation arc by 32 years prior to its discovery.[4]
Physical characteristics
As of 2016, Bydžovský's size,
silicaceous composition, with low albedos, typically closer to 0.05 than to 0.25, the asteroid's diameter might be on the upper end of NASA's published conversion table, as the lower the reflectivity (albedo), the larger the body's diameter for a given absolute magnitude.[3]
