    (21601) 1998 XO89 (provisional designation 1998 XO89) is a Jupiter trojan from the Greek camp, approximately 55 kilometers (34 miles) in diameter. It was discovered on 15 December 1998, by astronomers with the Lincoln Near-Earth Asteroid Research at the Lincoln Lab's ETS near Socorro, New Mexico. [1] The dark Jovian asteroid has a rotation period of 12.7 hours and belongs to the 80 largest Jupiter trojans. [8] It has not been named since its numbering in February 2001. [9]

    Orbit and classification

    1998 XO89 is a dark Jovian asteroid orbiting in the leading Greek camp at Jupiter's L4 Lagrangian point, 60° ahead of the Gas Giant's orbit in a 1:1 resonance (see Trojans in astronomy). [3] It is also a non-family asteroid in the Jovian background population. [4]

    It orbits the Sun at a distance of 5.0–5.4  AU once every 11 years and 11 months (4,356 days; semi-major axis of 5.22 AU). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.04 and an inclination of 19° with respect to the ecliptic. [2] The body's observation arc begins with a precovery published by the Digitized Sky Survey and taken at the Siding Spring Observatory in March 1991, more than 7 years prior to its official discovery observation at Socorro. [1]

    Numbering and naming

    This minor planet was numbered on 8 February 2001 ( M.P.C. 22480). [9] As of 2021, it has not been named. [1]

    Physical characteristics

    1998 XO89 is an assumed C-type asteroid. Its V–I color index of 0.97 is typical for that of D-type asteroids, the dominant spectral type among the Jupiter trojans. [8]

    Rotation period

    In April 2013, a rotational lightcurve of 1998 XO89 was obtained from photometric observations by Robert Stephens at the Center for Solar System Studies (CS3) in California. Lightcurve analysis gave a rotation period of 12.65±0.01 hours and a brightness variation of 0.30 magnitude ( U=2+ ). [7] Observations by his college Brian Warner at CS3 in July 2017, gave a similar period of 12.530 hours with an amplitude of 0.25 magnitude ( U=2+ ). [lower-alpha 1] [lower-alpha 2]

    Diameter and albedo

    According to the surveys carried out by the Japanese Akari satellite and the NEOWISE mission of NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, 1998 XO89 measures 54.91 and 56.08 kilometers in diameter and its surface has an albedo of 0.064 and 0.100, respectively. [5] [6] The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes a standard albedo for a carbonaceous asteroid of 0.057 and calculates a diameter of 55.67 kilometers based on an absolute magnitude of 10.0.
