1726 Hoffmeister , provisional designation 1933 OE , is a carbonaceous asteroid and namesake of the Hoffmeister family from the central region of the asteroid belt , approximately 23 kilometers in diameter.
It was discovered on 24 July 1933, by German astronomer Karl Reinmuth at Heidelberg Observatory in southwest Germany, and named after astronomer Cuno Hoffmeister .[14]
Orbit and classification
[ edit ]
Hoffmeister is the namesake and lowest-numbered member of the very compact Hoffmeister family (519 ), which, based upon its low albedo, was most likely formed from the breakup of a 50–100 kilometer-sized, carbon-rich parent body within the past several hundred million years.[3] [4]
It orbits the Sun in the central main-belt at a distance of 2.7–2.9 AU once every 4 years and 8 months (1,700 days; semi-major axis of 2.79 AU ). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.04 and an inclination of 3° with respect to the ecliptic .[1] It was first identified as 1924 UA at the Yerkes Observatory in 1924, extending the asteroid's observation arc by 9 years prior to its official discovery observation at Heidelberg.[14]
Physical characteristics
[ edit ]
In the SMASS classification , Hoffmeister is characterized as a Cb-type, a subtype of the carbonaceous C-complex .[1] [13]
Diameter and albedo
[ edit ]
According to the surveys carried out by the Japanese Akari satellite and NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer with its subsequent NEOWISE mission, Hoffmeister measures between 22.03 and 25.67 kilometers in diameter, and its surface has a low albedo between 0.03 and 0.05.[6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes a standard albedo for carbonaceous asteroids of 0.057 and calculates a diameter of 17.4 kilometers with an absolute magnitude of 12.53.[5]
Rotational lightcurve
[ edit ]
In December 2009, a rotational lightcurve of Hoffmeister was obtained from photometric observations by astronomers at the Palomar Transient Factory in California. It gave a rotation period of 11.7058± 0.0056 hours with a brightness variation of 0.40 magnitude (U=2 ).[12]
Naming
[ edit ]
This minor planet was named in memory of German astronomer Cuno Hoffmeister (1892–1968), who founded the Sonneberg Observatory in 1925, and became one of its directors (see 1039 Sonneberga ) . Hoffmeister discovered thousands of variable stars , co-discovered comet C/1959 O1 , thoroughly investigated a large number of meteors , and discovered 5 minor planets: 2183 Neufang , 3203 Huth , 3674 Erbisbühl , 4183 Cuno (which was later named after him) and 4724 Brocken . The lunar crater Hoffmeister was also named in his honor.[2] The official naming citation was published by the Minor Planet Center on 20 February 1976 (M.P.C. 3933 ).[15]
