413 Edburga is a typicalMain beltasteroid.Max Wolf discovered it on 7 January 1896 atHeidelberg Observatory.[1] The origin of the name is unknown.[3] This asteroid is orbiting theSun at a distance of2.58 AU with aperiod of 4.15 yr and aneccentricity of 0.34. Itsorbital plane is inclined at an angle of 18.7° to theplane of the ecliptic.[1]
Analysis of the asteroid'slight curve based onphotometric data collected during 2011 shows arotation period of15.78±0.02 h with a brightness variation of0.53±0.02 inmagnitude. This is consistent with prior results.[4] This is classified as anM-type asteroid in theTholen system and X-type in theBus and Binzel taxonomy,[5] with a moderate albedo and generally featurelessnear infrared spectra. An absorption feature has been detected at a wavelength 3 μm, suggesting this is W-type.[5] It spans a diameter of31.95±2.8 km.[6]Radar echoes are bimodal, suggesting a bifurcated structure that is likely acontact binary.[5]
