NAZOV / TITLE :

Photometry & spectroscopy of Aten 1998 TU3

ABSTRAKT / ABSTRACT :

I'm going to talk about the radar target 1998 TU3. I observed it during August and September 2024
at the Skalnate Pleso Observatory. In the presentation I will give the results of the photometric
observations, an estimate of the taxonomic class from tricolor photometry, and an estimate of the
size of the asteroid. Together with archival data from 2010, I have also created a model of the
object. From the available spectroscopy I will try to infer the surface composition of the asteroid.
There will be a small bonus also.
