Kiviuq is a prograde irregular satellite of Saturn . It was discovered by J. J. Kavelaars et al. in 2000,[9] S/2000 S 5 .[10] [11] Kiviuq , a hero of Inuit mythology .[12]
Kiviuq is about 17 km in diameter, and orbits Saturn at an average distance of 11.3 million kilometers in 449 days. It is a member of the Inuit group of irregular satellites. It is light red, and the Kiviupian (Kiviuqan)[a] infrared spectrum is very similar to the Inuit-group satellites Siarnaq and Paaliaq , supporting the thesis of a possible common origin of the Inuit group in the break-up of a larger body.[7] [13]
Kiviuq is believed to be in Kozai resonance , cyclically reducing its orbital inclination while increasing the eccentricity and vice versa.[14] [8]
The light curve amplitude of Kiviuq is large, varying in brightness by over 2 magnitudes . The large amplitude of Kiviuq suggests that it has an elongated shape, and may be a possible contact binary .[4]
Exploration [ edit ]
On 30 August 2010, the ISS camera of the Cassini–Huygens spacecraft took light-curve data from a distance of 9.3 million km. With these data, the rotation period was measured to 21 hours and 49 minutes.[5]
^ a b The genitive form of Kiviuq is Kiviup. Thus the adjectival form could be absolutive Kiviuqian or genitive Kiviupian, parallel to nominative Venusian and genitive Venerian for Venus . See Inuktitut morphology
