Scientific paper

In this paper we present the results of a series of observational campaigns carried out from 1984 to 1992 at the European Southern Observatory (ESO, La Silla, Chile) devoted to the determination of the rotational properties of small asteroids, to enlarge the available data set and to obtain bias-free photoelectric observations of small asteroids. We have obtained complete lightcurves and computed for the first time reliable rotational periods for the asteroids 355 Gabriella (Psyn = 4.830 hours), 378 Holmia (Psyn = 4.45 hours), 614 Pia (Psyn = 4.576 hours), 725 Amanda (Psyn = 3.749 hours), 915 Cosette (Psyn = 4.445 hours), 1188 Gothlandia (Psyn = 3.493 hours), 1266 Golia (Psyn = 4.097 hours), 1860 Barbarossa (Psyn = 3.255 hours), 1884 Skip (Psyn = 3.079 hours), and 3284 1953 NB (Psyn = 4.307 hours). We determined also the U-B and B-V color indices of seven of the observed asteroids.
