58534 Logos
58534 Logos, or as a binary system Logos–Zoe, is a likely trans-Neptunian contact binary or close-binary triple system in the cold classical population of the Kuiper belt. The contact binary is approximately in diameter. and has a 66-kilometer companion named Zoe. The system mass is.
In the Gnostic tradition, Logos and Zoe are a paired emanation of the deity, and part of its creation myth.
Hubble Space Telescope observations of variations in brightness that indicate that Logos itself is likely a close binary or contact binary. It rotates with a period of 17.4 hours.
Orbit
A 10-million-year integration of the orbit shows that it is a classical Kuiper belt object that does not get closer to the Sun than or further than 52.1 AU.Zoe
Logos is a binary with the components of comparable size orbiting the barycentre on a moderately elliptical orbit.The Logos system was discovered on 4 February 1997, and it was discovered to be a binary object on 17 November 2001 from Hubble Space Telescope observations by K. S. Noll, D. C. Stephens, W. M. Grundy, J. Spencer, Robert Millis, Marc Buie, Dale Cruikshank, S. C. Tegler, and W. Romanishin and announced on 11 February 2002.
Once the secondary was confirmed, it was officially designated Logos I and named Zoe. It orbits its primary Logos with a semi-major axis of 8217 km in 309.9 days with an eccentricity of 0.546. Its estimated diameter is 66 km, and mass is kg.
Zoe potentially has a very slow rotation., its shape is unknown.
