13241 Biyo, provisional designation 1998 KM41, is a stony Florian asteroid from the inner regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 4 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered on 22 May 1998, by the Lincoln Near-Earth Asteroid Research team (LINEAR) at the U.S. Lincoln Laboratory Experimental Test Site in Socorro, New Mexico. It was later named after Filipino educator Josette Biyo.[2]
Orbit and classification
Biyo is a member of the Flora family, a collisional group of S-type asteroids asteroids, and one of the largest main-belt families. It orbits the Sun in the inner main-belt at a distance of 2.1–2.4 AU once every 3 years and 5 months (1,252 days). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.06 and an inclination of 7° with respect to the ecliptic.[1] It was first identified as 1975 UB1 at the Karl Schwarzschild Observatory in 1975, extending the body's observation arc by 23 years prior to its official discovery observation at Socorro.[2]
Physical characteristics
Rotation and shape
In March 2011, a rotational lightcurve of Biyo was obtained from photometric observations by Italian astronomers at the Virginio Cesarini Observatory (157) in Frasso Sabino, Italy. Lightcurve analysis gave a rotation period of 4.4 hours (twice the original reported period solution) with a brightness amplitude of 0.99 magnitude, which indicates that the body has a non-spheroidal shape (U=2).[4]
Diameter and albedo
The asteroid has not been surveyed by none of the space-based telescopes, such as the Infrared Astronomical Satellite IRAS, the Japanese Akari satellite and NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer.[1][3] The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes an albedo for a stony asteroid of 0.24 – derived from 8 Flora, the largest member and namesake of this orbital family – and calculates a diameter of 3.92 kilometers with an absolute magnitude of 14.2.[3]
Naming
This minor planet was named after Josette Biyo (born 1958), a Filipino educator, former executive director of the Philippine Science High School System and now the director of Department of Science and Technology- Science Education Institute.[5] The naming was part of the International Excellence in Teaching Award she received during the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair held in Louisville, Kentucky, in 2002, when she was a teacher at the Philippine Science High School in Iloilo, Philippines. Biyo was the first Asian teacher to win the Intel Excellence in Teaching Award.[2][6] The official naming citation was published by the Minor Planet Center on 24 July 2002 (M.P.C. 46109).[7]
