Abstract:
Lightcurves for 29 main-belt asteroids were obtained at the Center for Solar System Studies-Palmer Divide Station (CS3-PDS) from 2015 March-June. All but three were members of the Hungaria orbital group or collisional family and observed as part of an ongoing program to obtain data for spin axis and shape modeling. One Hungaria, (79472) 1998 AX4 showed signs of having a satellite. Analysis indicates it is a possible binary.
