1336 Zeelandia, provisional designation 1934 RW, is a stony Koronian asteroid from the outer regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 21 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered on 9 September 1934, by Dutch astronomer Hendrik van Gent at the Union Observatory in Johannesburg, South Africa. [13] The asteroid was named for the Dutch province of Zeeland. [2]

Orbit and classification

Zeelandia belongs to the Koronis family ( 605), [3] [4] a very large asteroid family of 6,000 known members with stony composition and nearly co-planar ecliptical orbits. [14]

It orbits the Sun in the outer main-belt at a distance of 2.7–3.0  AU once every 4 years and 10 months (1,757 days; semi-major axis of 2.85 AU). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.06 and an inclination of 3 ° with respect to the ecliptic. [1] In October 1905, a first precovery was taken at the Lowell Observatory in Arizona. Its first identification as A906 YO was made at Taunton Observatory ( 803) in December 1906. The body's observation arc begins with its official discovery observation at Johannesburg in September 1934. [13]

Physical characteristics

Zeelandia has been characterized as a stony S-type asteroid in both the Tholen and SMASS classification. [1]

Rotation period

In March 2004, a rotational lightcurve of Zeelandia was obtained from photometric observations by a collaboration of American astronomers. Lightcurve analysis gave a well-defined rotation period of 15.602 hours with a brightness variation of 0.61 magnitude ( U=3). [10] The result was confirmed by photometrists Pierre Antonini, Federico Manzini, Julian Oey and Frederick Pilcher, as well as Hiromi and Hiroko Hamanowa, who measured a similar period of 15.624 with an amplitude of 0.50 magnitude in April 2005 ( U=3). [11]

Diameter and albedo

According to the surveys carried out by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite IRAS, the Japanese Akari satellite, and the NEOWISE mission of NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, Zeelandia measures between 19.18 and 23.63 kilometers in diameter and its surface has an albedo between 0.153 and 0.273. [5] [6] [7] [8] [9]

The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link adopts the results obtained by IRAS, that is, an albedo of 0.2183 and a diameter of 20.99 kilometers based on an absolute magnitude of 10.66. [3] [6]

Naming

This minor planet was named for the Dutch province of Zeeland. The official naming citation was mentioned in The Names of the Minor Planets by Paul Herget in 1955 ( H 121). [2]
