SHAPE AND ROTATION OF (8567) 1996 HW1

Published by National Aeronautics and Space Administration | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Metadata Last Checked: August 03, 2025 | Last Modified: 2025-07-17
We present the three-dimensional shape and rotation state of near-Earth asteroid (8567) 1996 HW1 based on radar images and optical lightcurves (Magri et al., 2011). 1996 HW1 was observed in 2008 using the 12.6-cm radar at Arecibo Observatory. Optical lightcurves were obtained at several observatories and used to further constrain the shape modeling.
