Scientific paper

Pole positions for 10 asteroids are determined using the amplitude-magnitude method and the phase angle bisector (PAB) and real asteroid coordinates. The amplitude-longitude relationship is examined and the pole and rotational axes directions are calculated. Consideration is given to the irregular shape of some of the asteroid and scattering effects. It is noted that for angles less than 10-15 deg both real asteroid and PAB coordinates accurately predict pole positions.
