5430 Luu, provisional designation 1988 JA1, is a stony Phocaea asteroid from the inner regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 7 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered on 12 May 1988, by American astronomer couple Carolyn and Eugene Shoemaker at Palomar Observatory, California, and later named after astronomer Jane Luu.[2][12]

    Orbit and classification


    Luu is a member of the Phocaea family (701).[4] It orbits the Sun in the inner main-belt at a distance of 1.8–2.9 AU once every 3 years and 8 months (1,328 days). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.22 and an inclination of 24° with respect to the ecliptic.[1] The first precovery was taken at Crimea–Nauchnij in 1970, extending the asteroid's observation arc by 18 years prior to its discovery.[12]


    Physical characteristics


    Luu has been characterized as a common S-type asteroid.[3]


    Rotation period


    In April 2006, photometric observations of Luu collected by American astronomer Brian D. Warner at his Palmer Divide Station, Colorado, show a rotation period of 13.55±0.02 hours with a brightness variation of 0.06±0.02 magnitude (U=2).[10] A second, tentative lightcurve was obtained by French astronomer René Roy in July 2007. It gave a period of 4.44±0.05 hours and an amplitude of 0.05 in magnitude (U=2-).[9]


    Diameter and albedo


    According to the surveys carried out by the Japanese Akari satellite and NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer with its subsequent NEOWISE mission, Luu measures 6.5 and 8.3 kilometers in diameter and its surface has an albedo between 0.21 and 0.26.[5][6][7][8]

    The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes an albedo of 0.23 – derived from 25 Phocaea, the family's most massive member and namesake – and calculates a diameter of 7.6 kilometers with an absolute magnitude of 12.8.[3]


    Naming


    This minor planet is named in honor of Vietnamese-American astronomer Jane X. Luu (born 1963) for her research and discovering the first and subsequent members of the Kuiper Belt.[13] She also studied the physical properties of these bodies and the coma of potentially Extinct comets.[2] The approved naming citation was published by the Minor Planet Center on 1 July 1996 (M.P.C. 27459).[14]
