(145480) 2005 TB 190 is a large trans-Neptunian object that is classified as a near or extended scattered disk object (SDO or DO) in terms of orbital dynamics . Due to its size, the asteroid may be one of the dwarf planet candidates .

discovery

2005 TB 190 was discovered on October 11, 2005 by a team of astronomers consisting of Andrew Becker, Andrew Puckett and Jeremy Martin Kubica with the 2.5 m Ritchey Chretien telescope at the Apache Point Observatory ( New Mexico ). The discovery was made on 31 August 2006 with 2,005 SF 278 announced the asteroid was on 5 December 2006 by the IAU , the Minor Planet -number 145480 .

After its discovery, in 2005 TB 190 could be identified on photos taken as part of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey program (SDSS) at the Apache Point Observatory up to November 18, 2001, thus extending its observation period by four years. in order to calculate its orbit more precisely. Since then, the planetoid has been observed through the Herschel Space Telescope as well as various Earth-based telescopes. In September 2018, a total of 355 observations were available over a period of 17 years. The last observation so far was made in September 2018 at the Purple Mountain Observatory ( China ). (As of March 15, 2019)

properties

2005 TB 190 near the so-called “gap”.

Orbit

2005 TB 190 orbits the sun in 661.98 years in a strongly elliptical orbit between 46.20  AU and 105.71 AU from its center. The orbit eccentricity is 0.392, the orbit is 26.49 ° inclined to the ecliptic . The planetoid is currently 47.22 AU from the sun. He last passed through perihelion in 2016, so the next perihelion should take place in 2678.

Simulations 2007 by Emel'Yanenko and Kiseleva show that in 2005 TB 190 has a less than 1% chance of being in a 4: 1 orbit resonance with Neptune.

Both Marc Buie ( DES ) and the Minor Planet Center classify the planetoid as SDO ; the latter also generally lists it as a "distant object" . The team of astronomers of the “TNO's are cool” program, on the other hand, classifies it as an extended SDO (ESDO or DO ).

Size and rotation

A diameter of 372.5 km is currently assumed, based on a reflectivity of 19.5% and an absolute brightness of 4.58  m , which was determined using data from the Herschel Space Telescope. Based on this diameter, the total surface area is around 436,000 km 2 . The apparent magnitude of 2005 TB 190 is 21.25  m .

Since it is conceivable that 2005 TB 190 is in hydrostatic equilibrium due to its size and could therefore be largely round, it may meet the criteria for classification as a dwarf planet . Mike Brown believes that it is in 2005 TB 190 to perhaps is a dwarf planet.

Using light curve observations , the 2005 TB 190 rotates once around its axis in 12 hours and 40.8 minutes. This means that in a 2005 TB 190 year it performs 457 641.3 self- rotations (“days”). However, this is still fraught with uncertainties, as the observation time at that time was insufficient and the error rate is around 30%.

In visible light , 2005 TB 190 is moderately red in color.
