55576 Amycus is a centaur discovered on 8 April 2002 by the NEAT at Palomar .[1]
The minor planet was named for Amycus , a male centaur in Greek mythology .
It came to perihelion in February 2003.[1] Data from the Spitzer Space Telescope gave a diameter of 76.3± 12.5 km .[4] [5]
A low probability asteroid occultation of star UCAC2 17967364 with an apparent magnitude of +13.8 was possible on 11 February 2009.[8] Another such event involving a star with an apparent magnitude of +12.9 occurred on 10 April 2014 at about 10:46 Universal Time , visible for observers in the southwest US and western Mexico.[9]
Near 3:4 resonance of Uranus [ edit ]
Amycus (2002 GB10) lies within 0.009 AU of the 3:4 resonance of Uranus and is estimated to have a long orbital half-life of about 11.1 Myr .[10] [11]
The failed libration (resonance motion ) of Amycus.
