Abstract
CCD photometry of asteroids 71 Niobe and 340 Eduarda were obtained at
the Universidad de Monterrey Observatory during 2006. Eduarda was also
observed at the Palmer Divide Observatory during December 2006. A
synodic rotation period of 8.0062 ± 0.0004 hours and an amplitude
of 0.26 ± 0.02 magnitudes was obtained for 340 Eduarda from seven
nights of observations at both observatories. A refined rotation period
for 71 Niobe is presented from combining 13 nights of observations
between January and April 2006 from the Universidad de Monterrey
Observatory with previously published data. The resulting synodic period
is 35.81 ± 0.01 hours from a total of 25 nights of observations.
