(48434) Maxbeckmann is an asteroid of the middle main belt , which was discovered by the German astronomer Freimut Börngen on October 23, 1989 at the Thuringian State Observatory Tautenburg ( IAU code 033).

The mean diameter of the asteroid was calculated to be 5.503 ± 0.161 km, the albedo of 0.049 ± 0.011 suggests a dark surface.

According to the SMASS classification ( Small Main-Belt Asteroid Spectroscopic Survey ), a spectroscopic investigation by Gianluca Masi , Sergio Foglia and Richard P. Binzel at (48434) Maxbeckmann assumed a dark surface, so it could, roughly speaking, be around trade a C asteroid .

The track from (48434) Maxbeckmann was secured in 2002 so that numbering could be assigned. The asteroid was named after the German painter and graphic artist Max Beckmann (1884–1950) at the suggestion of Freimut Börngen . The asteroid was named on May 1, 2003.
