Scientific paper

The near-Earth asteroids 2006 VV2 and 2008 BT18 were observed by the authors in 2007 April and 2008 July to determine their basic physical parameters. The absolute magnitude (H) and slope parameter (G) are 2006 VV2: H = 16.6 ± 0.2, G = 0.2 ±0.2; and 2008 BT 18: H = 18.2 ± 0.2, G = 0.2 ± 0.1. The linear phase coefficients are ß = 0.03 ± 0.01 and 0.030 ± 0.005 mag/deg. The synodic period for 2008 BT18 was determined to be P = 2.726 ± 0.007 h with a lightcurve amplitude of A = 0.045 ± 0.002 mag. For 2006 VV2, we revise our previous results for color indices, finding B-V = 0.84 ± 0.06 and V-R = 0.39 ± 0.02.
