1425 Tuorla, provisional designation 1937 GB, is a stony Eunomian asteroid from the central regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 14 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered on 3 April 1937, by Finnish astronomer Kustaa Inkeri at the Iso-Heikkilä Observatory in Turku, southwestern Finland. [12] The asteroid was named after the Tuorla Observatory of the University of Turku. [2] It was Kustaa Inkeri's only asteroid discovery. [13]

Orbit and classification

Tuorla is a member of the Eunomia family ( 502), [3] [4] a prominent family of stony asteroids and the largest one in the intermediate main belt with more than 5,000 members. [14]: 23  It orbits the Sun at a distance of 2.3–2.9  AU once every 4 years and 3 months (1,542 days). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.10 and an inclination of 13 ° with respect to the ecliptic. [1] The body's observation arc begins at Turku, the night before its official discovery observation. [12]

Physical characteristics

Tuorla has been characterized as a stony S-type asteroid by Pan-STARRS photometric survey, [11] in accordance with the overall spectral type for members of the Eunomia family. [14]: 23 

Rotation period

In April 2013, the so-far best-rated a rotational lightcurve of Tuorla was obtained from photometric observations by astronomer Vladimir Benishek at Belgrade Observatory in Serbia. Lightcurve analysis gave a well-defined rotation period of 7.75 hours (h) with a brightness variation of 0.24 magnitude ( U=3). [10] Other lightcurves were obtained by Alfonso Carreno Garceran (6.76 h), [a] Laurent Bernasconi (7.75 h), [8] and the Palomar Transient Factory (7.748 h), [9]

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, Tuorla measures between 11.795 and 14.94 kilometers in diameter and its surface has an albedo between 0.2390 and 0.383. [5] [6] [7] The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link derives an albedo of 0.2389 and adopts a diameter of 14.94 kilometers from IRAS, based on an absolute magnitude of 11.3. [3]

Naming

This minor planet was named after the Tuorla Observatory, the Research Institute for Astronomy and Optics, of the University of Turku, located in Piikkiö near Turku, Finland. [2] The Tuorla Observatory was established by prolific minor-planet discoverer Yrjö Väisälä in 1952, as an alternative to the Iso-Heikkilä Observatory, where this asteroid was discovered. The official naming citation was published by the Minor Planet Center on 30 January 1964 ( M.P.C. 2277). [15]
