The Near-Earth Object (NEO) 267494 (2002 JB9) was discovered by the LINEAR NEO Survey on May 6 2002 (MPEC 2002-J23). With an absolute magnitude H=15.7 and Minimum Orbit Intersection Distance MOID=0.034 AU, the object has been identified as a Potentially Hazardous Asteroid (PHA) by the Minor Planet center. 2002 JB9 has orbital elements similar to Jupiter-family comets (a,e,i,T=2.72,0.79,47,2.53).
We obtained 2 nights of rotationally resolved Bessel BVRI photometry and 2 nights of Bessel R photometry at the JPL 0.6-m Table Mountain Observatory, with observational circumstances listed in Table 1.
