Scientific paper

Two first lightcurve determination attempts were carried out from the Grup d'Astronomia de Tiana Observatory on several nights spanning from 2009 July 19 to November 10. The asteroids covered by this work are 985 Rosina, a body of known lightcurve parameters, and 990 Yerkes, a main-belt asteroid whose period had not been determined to date. We obtained a synodic period of 3.012 ± 0.001 h for 985 Rosina that matches very accurately previous lightcurve measurements. For 990 Yerkes a 24.56 ± 0.01 h period and 0.25 mag amplitude has been tentatively established by our observations.
