TL;DR: A change in the rotation rate of the asteroid 1862 Apollo is reported, which is fairly large and clearly visible in photometric lightcurves, confirming the prediction that the YORP effect plays a significant part in the dynamical evolution of asteroids.

TL;DR: In this paper, an optical and near-infrared (NIR) photometry for three gamma-ray burst supernovae (GRB-SNe): GRB 120729A, GRB 130215A/SN 2013ez, and GRB130831A/N 2013fu was presented, which indicated an unusually low expansion velocity of ~4000-6350 km's-1, the lowest ever measured for a GRB-SN.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a large-scale dataset of optical data from more than 100 observers who submittheir optical data to publicly available databases and derived 3D shape models of asteroids together with their rotation periods and orientations of rotation axes.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the results of photometric observations of 1996 FG3, 1998 PG, and (5407) 1992 AX, and estimate the following parameters of the binary system: the primary's rotation period is P1=(3.5942±0.0002) h, the system's orbital period is 2P2=(16.135± 0.005) h.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented new observational data for selected main-belt asteroids of different compositional types, including low-albedo asteroids, and determined the values of the G1 and G2 parameters for magnitude phase dependences of individual asteroids.
