Scientific paper

A CCD imaging observation of Periodic Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 (1993e) was carried out at the Okayama Astrophysical Observatory. We derived the magnitude of ten large nuclei in the R-band, and estimated the lower limits of their sizes. The diameter of the nuclei is larger than 0.7 - 0.9 km, which corresponds to a mass of 2 - 4 x 1011 kg when the bulk density is assumed to be approximately 1 g/cu cm.
