The China Near-Earth Object Survey Telescope (CNEOST) conducted four photometric surveys from 2015 to 2018 using image processing and aperture photometry techniques to obtain extensive light curve data on asteroids. The second-order Fourier series method was selected for its efficiency in determining the rotation periods of the observed asteroids. Our study successfully derived rotation periods for 892 asteroids, with 648 of those matching values recorded in the LCDB (for asteroids with U > 2). To enhance the reliability of the derived spin parameters and shape models, we also amassed a comprehensive collection of published light curve data supplemented by additional photometric observations on a targeted subset of asteroids conducted using multiple telescopes between 2021 and 2022. Through the application of convex inversion techniques, we successfully derived spin parameters and shape models for seven main-belt asteroids (MBAs): (2233) Kuznetsov, (2294) Andronikov, (2253) Espinette, (4796) Lewis, (1563) Noel, (2912) Lapalma, and (5150) Fellini. Our thorough analysis identified two credible orientations for the rotational poles of these MBAs, shedding light on the prevalent issue of “ambiguity in pole direction” that often accompanies photometric inversion processes. CNEOST continues its observational endeavors, and future collected data combined with other independent photometric measurements will facilitate further inversion to better constrain the spin parameters and yield more refined shape models. |
