Astrometry of three near Earth asteroids with the Lijiang 2.4 m telescope

摘要

Under the framework of observational campaigns organized by the GAIA Follow Up Network for Solar System Objects, three near Earth asteroids, 367943 Duende, 99942 Apophis and 2013 TV135, were observed with the Lijiang 2.4 m telescope administered by Yunnan Observatories. The software package PRISM was used to calibrate the CCD fields and measure the positions of 99942 Apophis and2013 TV135, and our own software was used for 367943 Duende. A comparison of the results show that the ephemerides of INPOP10 a and JPL are consistent for99942 Apophis and 2013 TV135, however, they are quite inconsistent for 367943 Duende. Moreover, we have found that differences between the mean values in the ephemerides of INPOP10 a and JPL are about 72 and-199 in right ascension and declination respectively for 367943 Duende. Moreover, the ephemeris published by JPL is reliable in terms of the mean observed-minus-calculated(O- C) residuals in right ascension and declination of about 2.72 and 1.49 respectively.
