The asteroid orbits the Sun at a distance of 1.2–3.1 AU once every 3 years and 2 months (1,147 days). Its orbit has aneccentricity of 0.44 and aninclination of 8° with respect to theecliptic.[1] The body'sobservation arc begins with its first observation at theSiding Spring Observatory, five months prior to its official discovery observation at Kushiro.[2]
In December 2012, the so far best rated rotationallightcurve was obtained by American astronomerBrian Warner at his Palmer Divide Observatory in Colorado. Lightcurve analysis gave arotation period of 3.1999 hours with a brightness variation of 0.12magnitude (U=3). Photometric observations also gave a period of 19.47 hours for a probableasteroid moon, with a measured diameter-ratio of0.18±0.02, which translates into a diameter of 400 meters for its moon.[3]
According to the surveys carried out by theSpitzer Space Telescope and NASA'sWide-field Infrared Survey Explorer with its subsequentNEOWISE mission, the asteroid measures 2.03 and 2.723 kilometers in diameter and its surface has analbedo of 0.19 and 0.66.[5][7][8][11] TheCollaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes an albedo of 0.18 and derives a diameter of 2.3 kilometers based on anabsolute magnitude of 15.67.[6]
