(9511) Klingsor is an asteroid of the central main belt , which was discovered on October 16, 1977 by the Dutch astronomer couple Cornelis Johannes van Houten and Ingrid van Houten-Groeneveld . The discovery took place during the 3rd Trojan survey, during which Tom Gehrels surveyed field plates recorded by the 120 cm Oschin Schmidt telescope of the Palomar observatory at the University of Leiden , 17 years after the start of the Palomar-Leiden- Surveys . An unconfirmed sighting of the asteroid had it on 20 December 1973 under the provisional designation 1973 YQ 2 at the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory in Nautschnyj given.
The asteroid belongs to the Gefion family, a group of asteroids of the central main belt named after (1272) Gefion . The group used to be called the Ceres family (after (1) Ceres , Vincenzo Zappalà 1995) and the Minerva family (after (93) Minerva , AstDyS-2 database). The timeless (non- osculating ) orbital elements of (9511) Klingsor are almost identical to those of the smaller, if one assumes the absolute brightness of 15.3 compared to 13.1, asteroids (175204) 2005 FT 5 .
(9511) Klingsor was named on November 11, 2000 after the magician Klingsor from Richard Wagner's opera Parsifal .
