ASTEROID LIGHTCURVE DERIVED DATA V12.0

Metadata Updated: January 30, 2026

This is a compilation of published rotational parameters derived from lightcurve data for asteroids, based on the Warner et al. (2009) Asteroid Lightcurve Database. This is the version released on Mar. 2, 2011. In addition to reported rotational parameters by individual paper, there is a summary file with the values adopted by Harris, Warner, and Pravec as the most likely correct values for each asteroid. The data set also contains files listing known binary asteroids and 'tumbling' asteroids.
