Scientific paper

CCD photometric observations of the Hungaria asteroid 27810 Daveturner were made by a collaboration of three observatories. Analysis of the final data set found a synodic rotation period of P = 540 ± 20 h with a lightcurve amplitude of 0.43 ± 0.03 mag. While the long period makes the asteroid a candidate for being in nonprincipal axis rotation (NPAR or "tumbling"), the data show no signs of such. The long period is hardly unusual since slow rotators are common among the Hungarias, accounting for approximately 30% of those with established rotation rates.
