38 Leda is a large, darkmain-beltasteroid that was discovered by French astronomerJ. Chacornac on January 12, 1856, and named afterLeda, the mother ofHelen of Troy inGreek mythology. In theTholen classification system, it is categorized as a carbonaceousC-type asteroid, while the Busasteroid taxonomy system lists it as a Cgh asteroid.[4] The spectra of the asteroid displays evidence of aqueous alteration.[5]

Leda has been studied byradar.[6] During 2002, 38 Leda was observed by radar from theArecibo Observatory. The return signal matched an effective diameter of 116 ± 13 km. This is consistent with some asteroid dimensions computed through other means.[7][8] Based upon alight curve that was generated fromphotometric observations of this asteroid atPulkovo Observatory, it has a rotation period of 12.834 ± 0.001 hours and varies in brightness by 0.15 ± 0.01 inmagnitude.[9]
