Scientific paper

The rate of inelastic relaxation of asteroid 1620 Geographos in the vicinity of the poles, corresponding to rotation about the axes of minimal and maximal principal moment of inertia, was considered on the basis of the theory stated by Efroimsky and Lazaryan. The low bound of the total relaxation time is estimated as 4 × 106 years.
