    911 Agamemnon, provisional designation 1919 FD, is a large Jupiter trojan and a suspected binary asteroid from the Greek camp, approximately 168 kilometers (100 miles) in diameter. It was discovered on 19 March 1919, by German astronomer Karl Reinmuth at the Heidelberg Observatory in southwest Germany. [1] The dark D-type asteroid is one of the largest Jupiter trojans and has a rotation period of 6.6 hours. [5] It is named after the Greek King Agamemnon, a main character of the Iliad . [3]

    Orbit and classification

    Agamemnon is a dark Jovian asteroid orbiting in the Greek camp at Jupiter's leading L4 Lagrangian point, 60° ahead of its orbit in a 1:1 resonance (see Trojans in astronomy). [6] It is also a non-family asteroid in the Jovian background population. [7]

    It orbits the Sun at a distance of 4.9–5.6  AU once every 12 years and 1 month (4,427 days; semi-major axis of 5.28 AU). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.07 and an inclination of 22° with respect to the ecliptic. [4] The body's observation arc begins at Heidelberg in October 1927, more than 8 years after its official discovery observation. [1]

    Physical characteristics

    In the Tholen classification, Agamemnon is a dark D-type asteroid. [19] It has also been characterized as a D-type in both the Tholen- and SMASS-like taxonomy of the Small Solar System Objects Spectroscopic Survey (S3OS2). [19] [18]

    Rotation period

    Photometric observations of this asteroid during 1997 were used to build a lightcurve showing a rotation period of 6.5819±0.0007 hours with a brightness variation of 0.29±0.01 magnitude. A 2009 study yielded a period of 6.592±0.004 hours, in reasonable agreement with the previous result. [5] [14]

    Diameter and albedo

    According to the surveys carried out by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite IRAS, the Japanese Akari satellite and the NEOWISE mission of NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, Agamemnon measures between 131.04 and 185.30 kilometers in diameter, based on a common absolute magnitude of 7.89 and a surface albedo between 0.037 and 0.072. [11] [12] [13] A concurring diameter estimate of 169±3 kilometers from an occultation event (see below) has also been obtained. [9] The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link agrees with the results obtained by IRAS, that is, an albedo of 0.0444 and a diameter of 166.66 kilometers based on an absolute magnitude of 7.89. [5]

    Shape and satellite

    A 2012 occultation produced a 2D shape model of roughly 190.6 km × 143.8 km (with an irregular, skewed outline) [10] and are suggestive of Agamemnon to have a satellite of approximately 5+5
    −2
    kilometers in diameter orbiting at 278±5 km from the primary's center. [9]

    Naming

    This minor planet named from Greek mythology after King Agamemnon, the leader of the Greeks in the Trojan War. He is a main character of Homer's Iliad . The official naming citation was mentioned in The Names of the Minor Planets by Paul Herget in 1955 ( H 88 ). [3]

    1143 Odysseus, provisional designation 1930 BH, is a large Jupiter trojan located in the Greek camp of Jupiter's orbit. It was discovered on 28 January 1930, by German astronomer Karl Reinmuth at the Heidelberg Observatory in southwest Germany, and later named after Odysseus, the legendary hero from Greek mythology. The dark D-type asteroid has a rotation period of 10.1 hours. With a diameter of approximately 125 kilometers, it is among the 10 largest Jovian trojans.
