Main-belt asteroid
531 Zerlina , provisional designation 1904 NW, carbonaceous Palladianasteroid from the central region of theasteroid belt , approximately 18 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered by German astronomerMax Wolf at theHeidelberg-Königstuhl State Observatory on 12 April 1904.[ 16]
Orbit and characteristics [ edit ] Observations using theIRAS satellite have shown it to have anabsolute magnitude of 11.8, a diameter of 15.19 kilometers, a rotational period of 16.706 hours, and analbedo of 0.1460.[ 1]
It is named for a character inMozart's opera,Don Giovanni H 57 ).[ 3]
