3102 Krok, provisional designation Шаблон:Mp, is a rare-type asteroid and slow rotator, classified as a near-Earth object of the Amor group, that measures approximately 1.5 kilometers in diameter.

It was discovered on 21 August 1981, by Slovak astronomer Ladislav Brožek at Kleť Observatory in the Czech Republic.[1] The asteroid was named after Duke Krok a legendary Czech figure.[2]

Classification and orbit

Krok orbits the Sun at a distance of 1.2–3.1 AU once every 3 years and 2 months (1,152 days). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.45 and an inclination of 8° with respect to the ecliptic.[3] The body's observation arc begins with its official discovery observation at Klet, as no precoveries were taken and no prior identifications were made.[1]

It has an Earth minimum orbital intersection distance of Шаблон:Convert, which translates into 71.7 lunar distances.[3]

Physical characteristics

In the Tholen classification, Krok is characterized as a rare QRS-type. In the SMASS taxonomy it is classified as a common S-type asteroid, and the "ExploreNEOs" Warm Spitzer program assigns a transitional Sqw-type.[3][4] The R- and Q-types also belong to the larger group of stony asteroids.

Rotation and shape

In September 1991, a first rotational lightcurve of Krok was obtained by American astronomer Alan Harris. Lightcurve analysis gave an exceptionally long rotation period of 147.8 hours with a brightness amplitude of 1.0 magnitude, which indicates that the body has a non-spheroidal shape (Шаблон:Small).[5]

Between 2000 and 2005, several photometric observations made by Czech astronomer Petr Pravec gave a similar period between 149.4 and 151.8 and an amplitude of 0.7 to 1.3 (Шаблон:Small).[6] This makes Krok as slow rotator.

Diameter and albedo

According to Tom GehrelsШаблон:' 1994 publication "Hazards due to Comets and Asteroids", Krok measures 1.6 kilometers in diameter based on a generic surface albedo of 0.15,[3] while the Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes a standard albedo for stony S-type asteroids of 0.20 and calculates a diameter of 1.48 kilometers with an absolute magnitude of 16.5.[7]

Naming

This minor planet was named after Duke Krok, a legendary figure in Czech history, and the first judge ("duke") of the Slavonic tribes in ancient Bohemia. He was also the father of Princess Libuše, who, together with her husband Přemysl founded the Přemyslid dynasty of Czech royalty.[2] The official naming citation was published on 18 December 1994 (Шаблон:Small).[8]
