Scientific paper

We present the results of photometric observations of 16 M-type asteroids performed from 1984 through 1990. We determine for the first time a reliable rotational period for the asteroids 369 Aeria, 785 Zwetana, and 798 Ruth. We estimate the shape and the pole coordinates of 135 Hertha and 250 Bettina and also check those of 16 Psyche, 21 Lutetia, 22 Kalliope, 129 Antigone and 216 Kleopatra. Composite lightcurves are derived for nine of the observed objects (83 Beatrix, 97 Klotho, 110 Lydia, 129 Antigone, 135 Hertha, 216 Kleopatra, 369 Aeria, 785 Zwetana and 798 Ruth).
