4364 Shkodrov, provisional designation 1978 VV5, is a background
Schelte Bus at the Palomar Observatory in California. The asteroid was named after Bulgarian astronomer Vladimir Shkodrov.[2]
Orbit and classification
Shkodrov is a non-
402), a giant asteroid family and the largest family of stony asteroids in the asteroid belt.[5]
It orbits the Sun in the
semi-major axis of 2.33 AU). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.14 and an inclination of 2° with respect to the ecliptic.[1] The body's observation arc begins at Palomar Observatory, two nights prior to its official discovery observation.[2]
Physical characteristics
Shkodrov is an assumed, stony
spectral type for members of the Flora family.[5]
Rotation period
In 2010 and 2013, two rotational
U=3-).[a]
Diameter and albedo
According to the survey carried out by the
albedo of 0.24.[6] The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes an identical albedo of 0.24 – derived from 8 Flora, the Flora family's parent body – and calculates a diameter of 4.94 kilometers based on an absolute magnitude of 13.7.[5]
