1500 Jyväskylä (jyvæs-kylæ), provisional designation 1938 UH, is a stony Florian asteroid from the inner regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 7 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered on 16 October 1938, by Finnish astronomer Yrjö Väisälä at the Turku Observatory in Southwest Finland. [8] It was named for the Finnish town Jyväskylä. [2]

Classification and orbit

Jyväskylä is a member of the Flora family, a large collisional group of stony asteroids. It orbits the Sun in the inner main-belt at a distance of 1.8–2.7  AU once every 3 years and 4 months (1,227 days). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.19 and an inclination of 7 ° with respect to the ecliptic. [1] The body's observation arc begins at Turku, 3 weeks prior to its official discovery observation. [8]

Physical characteristics

In 2016, a modeled lightcurve was derived from data contained in the Lowell photometric database. Light-curve analysis gave it a rotation period of 8.8275 hours and a spin axis of (123°, −75.0°) in ecliptic coordinates ( U=n.a.). [7]

According to the survey carried out by NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer with its subsequent NEOWISE mission, the asteroid measures between 7.39 and 8.095 kilometers in diameter, and its surface has an albedo between 0.161 and 0.31. [4] [5] [6] The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes an albedo of 0.24 – derived from 8 Flora, the largest member and namesake of this family – and calculates a diameter of 6.63 kilometers, using an absolute magnitude of 13.06. [3]

Naming

This minor planet was named for the Finnish town Jyväskylä. [2] It is the largest city in the region of Central Finland and on the Finnish Lakeland. The official naming citation was published by the Minor Planet Center on 20 February 1976 ( M.P.C. 3928). [9]
