Orbit

2005 TB190 is located near the "gap", a poorly understood region.

2005 TB190 is classified as scattered-extended by the Deep Ecliptic Survey (DES), because its orbit appears to be beyond significant gravitational interactions with Neptune's current orbit.[2] However, if Neptune migrated outward, there would have been a period when Neptune had a higher eccentricity. The aphelion of 2005 TB190 lies at 104 AU.[5]

Simulations by Emelʹyanenko and Kiseleva in 2007 showed that 2005 TB190 appears to have less than a 1% chance of being in a 4:1 resonance with Neptune.[7]

It has been observed 202 times over seven oppositions.[1] It will come to perihelion in January 2017.[1] There are precovery observations dating back to November 2001.

In 2010, thermal flux from 2005 TB190 in the far-infrared was measured by the Herschel Space Telescope. Initially, its size was estimated to lie within a range from 335 to 410 km.[5] Upon further analysis, its size was estimated to be around 507 km (315 mi).[3]

In the visible light, 2005 TB190 has a moderately red spectral slope.[6]

The TNO was found in 2009 to have a rotation period of 12.68 ±3 hours, a common value for trans-Neptunian objects of its size. Similarly sized (120348) 2004 TY364 has a rotation period of 11.7 ± 3 hours.
