360 Carlova is a very largemain-beltasteroid.[1] It is classified as aC-type asteroid and is probably composed ofcarbonaceous material. The asteroid has a convex, roughly ellipsoid shape.[2] The sidereal rotation period is 6.1873 hours with an axis of rotation along theecliptic coordinates (l,b) = (95°±3°,40°±1°).[3] It was discovered byAuguste Charlois on 11 March 1893 inNice.
