104th Street station (IND Fulton Street Line)
104th Street (signed as 104th Street–Oxford Avenue) is a station on the IND Fulton Street Line of the New York City Subway, located on Liberty Avenue at 104th Street in Ozone Park, Queens. The station is served by the Lefferts Boulevard branch of the A train at all times.


104th Street station (IND Fulton Street Line), History
104th Street was one of the six stations along Liberty Avenue in Queens, from 80th Street through Ozone Park–Lefferts Boulevard, as well as the current three track elevated structure, built for the BMT Fulton Street Line in 1915 as part of BMT's portion of the Dual Contracts. The connection to the BMT was severed on April 26, 1956, and the IND was extended east (railroad south) from Euclid Avenue via a connecting tunnel and new intermediate station at Grant Avenue, with the new service beginning on April 29, 1956. The Fulton Street Elevated west of Hudson Street was closed, and eventually demolished.


104th Street station (IND Fulton Street Line), History
The station has gone by a number of different names. It opened as Oxford Avenue. A 1924 system map portrayed the station as "Oxford Avenue", with "104th St." shown below the name in parentheses, and in a smaller print. By 1948, "Oxford" and "104" were shown in equal sizes, and by 1959 the name was shown as "104 St–Oxford". The current official map shows the name as just "104 St". Station signage still shows "104th Street – Oxford Avenue".

104th Wellesley's Rifles
The 104th Wellesley's Rifles were an infantry regiment of the British Indian Army. They could trace their origins to 1775, when they were raised as the 5th Battalion, Bombay Sepoys and presently its designation is 3 Guards(1 Rajputana Rifles) of Indian Army.


104th Wellesley's Rifles
The regiments first action was during the Mysore Campaign in the Third Anglo-Mysore War. This was followed by their participation in the Battle of Seringapatam in the Fourth Anglo-Mysore War. They were next called to serve in the Beni Boo Ali campaign in 1821, against the pirates in Eastern Arabia and the Persian Gulf region. Returning to India they took part in the Siege of Multan during the Second Anglo-Sikh War. They were next involved in the Anglo-Persian War in 1856, followed the next year by the Indian Rebellion of 1857 taking part in the Central India Campaign.


104th Wellesley's Rifles
Twenty years were to pass until their next action in the Battle of Kandahar during the Second Afghan War. They were also in East Africa during the Sudan Campaign. During World War I they were in the 6th (Poona) Division during the Mesopotamia Campaign. After a string of early successes particularly during the Battle of Es Sinn, the 6th Division was defeated at the Battle of Ctesiphon in November 1915. Following this engagement, the division withdrew to Kut and Siege of Kut began. After a lengthy siege all they surrendered in April 1916.


104th Wellesley's Rifles
After World War I the Indian government reformed the army moving from single battalion regiments to multi battalion regiments. In 1922, the 104th Wellesley's Rifles became the 1st Battalion 6th Rajputana Rifles. After independence they were one of the regiments allocated to the Indian Army.

104–128 South Side Square
104–128 South Side Square is a block of historic commercial buildings in Huntsville, Alabama, United States. The block, known as "Commercial Row" in the late 1800s, consists of fifteen two- and three-story buildings constructed between 1835 and 1912. 108, built in 1835 as a store for the Bell Factory textile mill, and 110, built in 1840, are the oldest buildings on the block but both have been extensively modified.


104–128 South Side Square
106, 112, 114, and 116 were all built in the 1880s in Italianate style; 118 was also built at this time but damaged by fire in 1901 and rebuilt without many of its original details. 128, built in 1896, is a transitional style between Italianate and the more restrained, 20th century Commercial Brick style. 104, 120, 122, and 124–126 were all built between 1903 and 1912 in the later commercial style. 122 was extensively renovated in 1965 with a modern façade.


104–128 South Side Square
124 and 126 have housed the Harrison Brothers hardware store since they were built in 1902; the store opened in another building on the square in 1897, and has been operated by the Historic Huntsville Foundation since 1984. At the time of the nomination, 100 had its original Italianate features covered or removed; it has since been restored, including a balcony wrapping around the façade and halfway down the Madison Street side of the building. The buildings were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.

105 (groupset)
105 (also formely 105 Golden Arrow) is the name of a road bike groupset by Shimano. The group was introduced in 1983 and is till today considered as an beginner groupset for sporty racing cyclists. It ranked below the Ultegra or 600 groupset and above more favorable groups such as Sora and Tiagra. The group was introduced in 1983 as 105, from 1989 it was called 105 SC and since 1999 105 again.


105 (groupset)
Today's standard of the groupset is the 11-speed gearshift and Hollowtech II bottom bracket or cranks (7000 series) (by 2019).


105 (groupset), History
The Shimano 105 road bike group came in a first version in 1980 on the market. The first series was built as the Golden Arrow 105. The number 105 was just an addition to the embossed on the parts, striking gold arrow. Greater attention was paid to the group in 1986, when it was presented along with the newly developed Shimano shifting technologies Shimano Indexed Shifting (SIS) and Shimano Linear Response (SLR) braking technology. It was introduced as a cheaper alternative to the 600-series and was based on the existing entry-level group Exage 500EX, extended to SIS and SLR. In both the '105s and the' 600s, Shimano produced a Golden Arrow version. The parts of both groups were very similar. In 1990, the group was replaced by the 105SC series.


105 (groupset), History
The Shimano 105 Dual Pivot (as opposed to single-pivot brakes) were the first brakes Shimano produced on a large scale with this superior power transmission technology. In the early 2010s, Shimano 105 was upgraded by the manufacturer and continues to be today "a serious alternative to more expensive switching groups." (Tour magazine) The components of the group are usually slightly heavier than the Dura Ace- and Ultegra groupsets.


105 (groupset), History
For the 5800 series launched in 2015, the key technologies of the established race groups Dura-Ace and Ultegra have been adopted. One of the main novelties was the 11-speed drive in the 105 group.


105 (groupset), History
As of 2015, Shimano also expanded its range in the 105 class to include hydraulic disc brakes. The brake RS505 and the mechanical-hydraulic shift lever (ST-RS505) are on the level of the 105 group, but no longer received the group name. They are fully compatible with the higher groups of equal number of turns.


105 (groupset), History
Many manufacturers equip their racing and cyclocross wheels from factory with Shimano 105, including Drössiger, Müsing, and Stevens.


105 (number)
105 (one hundred [and] five) is the natural number following 104 and preceding 106.


105 (number), In mathematics
105 is a triangular number, a dodecagonal number and the first Zeisel number. It is a sphenic number, and is the product of three consecutive prime numbers. 105 is the double factorial of 7. It is also the sum of the first five square pyramidal numbers.


105 (number), In mathematics
105 comes in the middle of the prime quadruplet (101, 103, 107, 109). The only other such odd numbers less than a thousand are 9, 15, 195 and 825. 105 is also a pseudoprime to the prime bases 13, 29, 41, 43, 71, 83 and 97. The distinct prime factors of 105 add up to 15, and so do those of 104, hence the two numbers form a Ruth-Aaron pair under the first definition.


105 (number), In mathematics
105 is also a number n for which n−2k{\displaystyle n-2^{k}} is prime, for 0<k<log2(n){\displaystyle 0<k<log_{2}(n)}. (This even works up to k=8{\displaystyle k=8}, ignoring the negative sign.)


105 (number), In mathematics
105 is the smallest integer such that the factorization of xn−1{\displaystyle x^{n}-1} over Q includes non-zero coefficients other than ±1{\displaystyle \pm 1}. In other words, the 105th cyclotomic polynomial, Φ105, is the first with coefficients other than ±1{\displaystyle \pm 1}.


105 (telephone number)
105 is a single non-emergency number in the United Kingdom and New Zealand. In the United Kingdom, it connects to the caller's local distribution network operator, and is primarily marketed for reporting power cuts. In New Zealand, it is used to contact the police in general non-emergency situations.


105 (telephone number), In the United Kingdom
Prior to the launch of the single number in 2016, people wishing to contact the relevant electric distribution company would have needed to know the 11-digit phone number of the electricity distribution company who served their area. Industry research following winter storms in 2013/2014 showed that most people in the event of a power cut would contact their electricity supplier (who sources or generates the electricity and bills the consumer) rather than the network operator (who is responsible for delivering power from the National Grid).


105 (telephone number), In New Zealand
Launched on 10 May 2019, 105 is used for non-emergency calls to Police where the event has already taken place and nobody is in any danger, such as a stolen car or property damage. It is the analogue of the 101 telephone number in the UK.


105 Artemis
Artemis (minor planet designation: 105 Artemis) is a main-belt asteroid that was discovered by J. C. Watson on September 16, 1868, at Ann Arbor, Michigan. It was named after Artemis, the goddess of the hunt, Moon, and crossways in Greek Mythology.


105 Artemis
It is a C-type asteroid, meaning that it is very dark and composed of carbonaceous material. Although is shares a similar orbit to the Phocaea family of S-type asteroids, its classification means 105 Artemis is not a member. The spectra of the asteroid displays evidence of aqueous alteration.


105 Artemis
In 1988, this object was detected with radar from the Arecibo Observatory at a distance of 1.07 AU. The measured radar cross-section was 1,800 km2. Photometric measurement of this asteroid made in 2010 at Organ Mesa Observatory in Las Cruces, New Mexico, produced an irregular light curve with a period of 37.150 ± 0.001 hours. During each rotation, the brightness varies by 0.16 ± 0.01 in magnitude.


105 Artemis
Based upon radar data, the estimated near surface solid density of the asteroid is3.0+0.9−0.8 g cm−3. Refined observations by the Arecibo Observatory, reported in 2006, showed a complex surface with varying albedo. Analysis of the spectra of 105 Artemis shows the presence of hydrated minerals at some rotation angles, but not at others.


105 Artemis
An occultation of the star HD 197999 was observed in 1982, which gave an estimated chord length of 110 km. Between 1981 and 2021, 105 Artemis has been observed to occult 23 stars.


105 BC
Year 105 BC was a year of the pre-Julian Roman calendar. At the time it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Rufus and Maximus (or, less frequently, year 649 Ab urbe condita) and the Sixth Year of Yuanfeng. The denomination 105 BC for this year has been used since the early medieval period, when the Anno Domini calendar era became the prevalent method in Europe for naming years.


105 Barking Road
105 Barking Road is a former public hall in Canning Town, in the London Borough of Newham, in the United Kingdom. The building is situated in the ward of Canning Town South, on the north of Barking Road, to the northeast of Canning Town station. 105 Barking Road is a classic example of a Victorian town hall with links to East London's suffragette and labour movements during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The building is a Grade II listed building.


105 Barking Road
Notable British activists including Sylvia Pankhurst, Will Thorne and James Keir Hardie all spoke here. Today, the building is the headquarters of the social action charity Community Links.


105 Barking Road, History, Construction
The building was designed by the British architect Lewis Angell (who also designed Stratford Old Town Hall in conjunction with John Giles) in the Italianate style, and was built between 1892 and 1894.


105 Barking Road, History, Connections with East End suffragette and labour movements
The public hall is associated with various prominent socialists and suffragettes in the United Kingdom, including Sylvia Pankhurst, Eleanor Marx, Keir Hardie, Daisy Parsons and Bertrand Russell who all spoke here. It also has a connection with the trade unionist Will Thorne who addressed a meeting of his fellow workers at the site of the public hall in 1889:


105 Barking Road, History, Connections with East End suffragette and labour movements
"The way you have been treated in your work for many years is scandalous, brutal and inhuman. I pledge my word that, if you will stand firm and don't waver, within six months we will claim and win the eight-hour day, a six-day week and the abolition of the present slave-driving methods in vogue not only at the Beckton Gas Works, but all over the country."


105 Barking Road, History, Connections with East End suffragette and labour movements
Following the speech, he established the National Union of Gasworkers and General Labourers (a forerunner to GMB, now one of the three biggest trade unions in the UK). By late 1889 the Union had 20,000 members and its success prepared the ground for the London Dock Strike of 1889, and the rapid growth of unionism in East London. Thorne was elected as general secretary of the Union on the same year, to a seat on West Ham town council in 1891, the borough's mayor in 1917–18, and MP for West Ham South in 1906, a seat he held for 12 years.


105 Barking Road, History, Connections with East End suffragette and labour movements
Another local public figure connected with the hall is Daisy Parsons, a leading suffragette and West Ham's first female mayor. In 1914, Parsons (along with Sylvia Pankhurst and the future leader of the Labour Party George Lansbury) held a meeting at Canning Town Public Hall to demand a minimum wage for women of 5s a day or £1 a week. In the following year, Parsons also gave an impassioned speech at the Woman's Suffrage and Labour Meeting held at the hall, led by Sylvia Pankhurst.


105 Barking Road, History, Connections with East End suffragette and labour movements
When the first London branch of the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU) was formed in Canning Town by Minnie Baldock and Annie Kenney in 1906 (with Adelaide Knight as Secretary), several meetings were held at Canning Town Public Hall. The East London Federation of Suffragettes continued to hold meetings at the hall after their split from the WSPU.


105 Barking Road, History, A centre for the community
The building has also served as a relief centre for the local community on several occasions. On 19 January 1917, a factory of the chemical firm Brunner, Mond & Co in Silvertown exploded, killing 69 people on the spot, seriously injuring 98 others, 4 of whom later died, with a further 1,000 people who sustained minor injuries. The Silvertown explosion caused massive destruction in the borough, around 70,000 homes were damaged, displacing a large number of residents. The public hall opened its doors and provided food, shelters, and clothes to those of who had lost their home. In February 1953, the Thames flooded the area of Canning Town and Custom House, it's known as North Sea Flood of 1953. An estimated 1,500 homes were damaged; 105 Barking Road once again provided temporary accommodation for those affected.


105 Barking Road, History, A centre for the community
Apart from hosting political events and delivering humanitarian aid, the public hall has also held a wide variety of community events. Newham Council's records show that 105 Barking Road was often to provide tea and entertainment for children selected from "the poorest streets".


105 Barking Road, History, A centre for the community
When East Ham and West Ham merged into London Borough of Newham in 1965, the public hall at 105 Barking Road became an Adult Education Institute. The building continued its educational role until 1989 when the local authority ruled it unsafe.


105 Barking Road, History, 1990-present
In 1990, local charity Community Links proposed to Newham Council that they would take over the building and bring it back into community use at no cost to the local authority. In return, the Council would lease 105 Barking Road to Community Links on a peppercorn lease. Following detailed negotiations, the Council agreed to this proposal in Spring 1991. Community Links began to raise fund to restore and revive the building and convert it to a multi-purpose community centre, and the plan was designed by British architect Richard Ellis.


105 Barking Road, History, 1990-present
The construction work began with a 'Topping Out' ceremony attended by Prince Charles on 2 December 1992. 128 companies provided free or substantially discounted materials, equipment, or professional services, and many community partners and individuals also made cash donations during the renovation. The total cost of the renovation project would have cost £1.5 million. However, with assistance pouring in from local community, Community Links only paid a little over £500,000 for the entire project. All the rest was contributed in kind. Community Links reopened the building with 7 days of celebration in October 1993, and it has been the home of the charity ever since.


105 Barking Road, Design
The hall's purpose was to provide a public meeting space and to administer council business in the southern part of the borough, where the population had expanded rapidly in the late nineteenth century. The site cost £2,400 (including land for the library) and construction cost £20,000. The library next door was constructed as part of the same development; the philanthropist John Passmore Edwards donated the first thousand books to the library's collection.


105 Barking Road, Design
It was at first intended to include public baths on the ground floor of the hall, with a galleried assembly hall on the first floor, but this aspiration was abandoned in 1891 on the grounds of cost. Instead, a second public hall-cum-police court and offices were provided. The new hall and library were some of the first public buildings in the borough to be lit by electricity, generated by gas engines on site. These were used until 1898 when the power generating station at Abbey Mills came into operation.


105 Barking Road, Design
The key architectural features of the building include a mosaic terrazzo floor and stained glass windows. The exterior of the hall also retains an impressive Italianate façade of red brick, ornamented with decorative Portland stone friezes and panels. Historic England states that the building has many architectural assets, including its "original stairs, doorcases and coloured glass windows and a vast first floor auditorium with surviving plasterwork ceiling, proscenium, and light fittings".


105 Barking Road, Design
Inside, the ground floor has an entrance lobby (with the mosaic terrazzo floor) with a foundation plaque, recording the names of councillors who oversaw the hall's construction. Two decorative cast-iron, open-well staircases lead from the main lobby to the mezzanine landing, the latter lit by stained glass windows in Art-Deco designs. A perpendicular corridor leading off from the landing gives access to the Sylvia Pankhurst Room and James Keir Hardie Room, used for training workshops and community events.

At the end of the corridor is the Neighbours Hall. The hall's principal decoration is its coffered ceiling, which has not been affected by the partial subdivision of the hall in the 1990s. Two of the original chandeliers, vast metal and frosted glass discs, remain in-situ. The sprung floor of the original stage also remains, although the stage arch has been partitioned.


105 George Street, The Rocks
105 George Street, The Rocks is a heritage-listed shop and former residence located at 105 George Street, in the inner city Sydney suburb of The Rocks in the City of Sydney local government area of New South Wales, Australia. It was built during 1851 by persons unknown and redeveloped in 1985 by the Sydney Cove Redevelopment Authority with Co-Wyn Construction. It is also known as Kathmandu (current) and Beach Culture and Dorian Scott (former). Property NSW, an agency of the Government of New South Wales. It was added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 10 May 2002.


105 George Street, The Rocks, History
This portion of land was part of Sydney's hospital garden between 1780 and 1816. Elizabeth Broughton was registered as claimant for this allotment No. 11 in 1834 and in 1840 she was granted the property. During 1841 she subdivided the grant into four parts and advertised them for auction. The land remained vacant, serving as a passageway to Harrington Place until 1851, when Isaac Stansfield erected a shop on the site. The Municipal Council of Sydney Rate Books of 1858 listed George Thorne as the owner. The property was described as a shop and dwelling with stone and brick walls and a timber shingled roof. It was three storeys high with a basement and had six rooms.


105 George Street, The Rocks, History
Thomas Playfair occupied the shop from 1861 until 1869, when he moved his butchery two doors north. The shop remained vacant while G. Thorne installed a slate roof to the building and in 1870 the "American Hotel" commenced operations with John Kelly as licensee. However, during 1872 the "American Hotel" relocated to the corner of Argyle and George Streets, and the "Union Hotel" commenced operations. In 1875 the Sands Directory listed Michael Cross as the occupant, retailing dairy products. In 1879 the shop functioned as a hotel again, named the "Sydney & Newcastle", with Joseph Spora the manager. Six years later, Louis Dupont became the manager and changed the hotel's name to "Messageries des Maritimes". Joseph Emmanuel became the licensee during 1886 and remained so until 1892, when the hotel was converted into a bird and animal shop run by dealer H. Sames.


105 George Street, The Rocks, History
By 1896 the site was being used as a grocer's and it continued in this use until 1920. It continued to be used for commercial/retail uses throughout the 1930s including by a confectioner and a dressmaker. Throughout this period of use the upper floor appears generally to have been used as a residence, with a separate entrance, and for short periods was used as a second commercial tenancy. Commercial use continued into the 1980s, including a period of use as an architect's office from the early 1970s until the reconstruction of the site in 1985.


105 George Street, The Rocks, History
105 George Street was completely demolished and reconstructed in 1985 due to structural instability. Due to this, there is almost no original fabric left on site to analyse. While documentation used in the planning of the reconstruction indicates certain components from the original building façade were reused in the reconstruction, these represent minor elements of the entire building.


105 George Street, The Rocks, History
Archaeology notes: Part of Hospital grounds. Granted to Elizabeth Broughton, of Lachlan Vale, as trustee of the will of William Broughton on 30 April 1840. In November 1841, land was vacant with passageway across it.

105 Squadron (Israel)
The 105 Squadron of the Israeli Air Force, also known as The Scorpion, was founded in December 1950 as a Spitfire squadron and has since operated the P-51 Mustang, Dassault Super Mystere, IAI Sa'ar, and F-4 Phantom II. It currently operates F-16Ds at Hatzor Airbase.


105 Squadron (Israel), Operating the F-4E Phantom II
The fifth and last Israeli Air Force F-4E Kurnass squadron, 105 was activated at Hatzor on March 31, 1975, under the command of Shmuel Gordon. The Scorpion received its mounts under Peace Echo V deliveries, flying the IAF's newest aircraft and latest blocks, and was soon the first IAF Squadron to introduce the AGM-78 Purple Fist anti-radiation missile. It flew its first operational bombing mission, against a PLO base in Lebanon, in September 1977. The squadron flew 335 sorties during the 1982 Lebanon War, primarily in the SEAD and close air support roles, and participated in operation Mole Cricket 19.

105 Squadron is a territorial reserve squadron of the South African Air Force. The squadron operations include coastal reconnaissance, command and control and radio relay in crime prevention operations in co-operation with the South African Police and Army. The squadron is based at AFB Durban. These reserve squadrons are used to fill a pilot and aircraft gap within the SAAF by making use of civilian pilots and their privately owned aircraft. Most flying takes place over weekends and because pilots have a good knowledge of the local terrain in the area where they live and commonly fly, the squadron is mostly used in a crime prevention role.


105 Street, Edmonton
105 Street is an arterial road in Downtown Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It starts across the North Saskatchewan River from Downtown, as one-way streets Walterdale Hill and Queen Elizabeth Park Road, which join and continue north on Walterdale Bridge. At 100 Avenue, 105 Street becomes a two-way street, and continues through Downtown past MacEwan University.


105 Street, Edmonton, Name
105 Street, also known as 105th Street, was originally named Fifth Street (or informally 5th Street). It was renamed 105th in 1914, as part of a citywide street renaming programme that was precipitated by the 1912 amalgamation of the then-city of Strathcona with the city of Edmonton.


105 Street, Edmonton, Route description, Queen Elizabeth Park Road
Queen Elizabeth Park Road begins at Saskatchewan Drive, just east of Gateway Boulevard, and descends the North Saskatchewan River valley, passing through Queen Elizabeth Park. In the floor of the valley, next to the Kinsman Park entrance, the roadway joins Walterdale Hill and becomes 105 Street. Queen Elizabeth Park Road is part of the major inbound connect between Highway 2 and the Edmonton International Airport. There have been proposals to improve the Gateway Boulevard connection with the Walterdale Bridge and downtown Edmonton by removing hairpin turn required to access Queen Elizabeth Park Road. Due to the topography of the river valley, proposals have shown that Gateway Boulevard would have to be realigned in pass under Saskatchewan Drive. There is no finalized alignment or timeline for construction.

105 mm Armata wz. 29
The 105 mm Armata wz. 29 was a field gun produced in France and Poland that was used by Poland, Nazi Germany, and Finland during World War II.


105 mm Armata wz. 29, History
After the defeat of the Central Powers during World War I the Allies agreed to reconstitute the country of Poland from the territory which had been partitioned by the German Empire, Austro-Hungarian Empire, and Russian Empire. The new armed forces of the Second Polish Republic inherited a mix of German, Russian and Austro-Hungarian weapons from its former occupiers. Poland also received French technical assistance and weapons to rebuild its armed forces after World War I. Large numbers of Russian weapons were also captured during the Polish-Soviet War when the Red Army was defeated after the Battle of Warsaw in 1920.


105 mm Armata wz. 29, Design
Although sometimes referred to as a modernized or upgraded Canon de 105 mle 1913 Schneider the 105 mm Armata wz. 29 was a new design with significant differences from the mle 1913. The wz. 29 originated from a French design produced by Schneider-Creusot for the arms export market. The wz. 29 differed from the mle 1913 in that it had a split trail carriage, wooden-spoked steel-rimmed wheels, new hydro-pneumatic recoil mechanism, new interrupted screw breech, new rifling pattern, longer L/31 barrel, new gun shield, and it fired separate loading bagged charges and projectiles.


105 mm Armata wz. 29, Design
These new features allowed the wz. 29 to reach an elevation of 43° and traverse of 25° L/R. The change to separate loading bagged charges and projectiles allowed the wz. 29 to use larger propellant charges than the mle 1913's separate loading cased ammunition. This improved muzzle velocity and when combined with greater elevation gave the wz. 29 longer range than the mle 1913. However, the change in ammunition also reduced its rate of fire to 6 rounds per minute.


105 mm Armata wz. 29, Users, Poland
In Polish service, the Canon de 105 mle 1913 Schneider was given the designation 105 mm Armata wz. 13. The first Polish unit to use the wz. 13 was General Józef Haller's Blue Army  that was created in France in 1917. The Blue Army received 16 guns which armed two Heavy Artillery Regiments. When World War I ended the Blue Army returned to Poland with their guns. In the spring of 1919 Poland bought 12 of the similar Cannone da 105/28 produced under license in Italy by Gio. Ansaldo & C.  By the end of the Polish-Soviet War 64 wz. 13's had been delivered by France and between 1923 and 1927 another 54 wz. 13's were purchased.


105 mm Armata wz. 29, Users, Poland
By 1935 approximately 96-104 wz. 29's had been delivered by France and starting in 1937 another 40-48 wz. 29's were produced under license at the Starachowice Works in Poland at an average rate of 4 guns per month. At the outbreak of World War II a further 32 wz. 29's were scheduled to be completed by a new factory at Stalowa Wola by the end of 1939 with another 44 guns to be completed during 1940. It is estimated that in 1939 Poland had 118 wz. 13 guns and 124 wz. 29 guns in their Heavy Artillery Regiments. Together the wz. 13 and wz. 29 were the standard long-range heavy artillery in service with the Polish Army.


105 mm Armata wz. 29, Users, Poland
In Polish service, they were either towed by eight-horse teams or Citroën-Kegresse P14 and C4P half-track artillery tractors. In both Polish and Finnish service the wz. 29 were often used as long-range counter-battery guns. In comparison to their Soviet rivals the wz. 29 out-ranged most of the modernized World War One era 122 mm and 152 mm howitzers. But the wz. 29 was out-ranged by most Soviet field guns including the modernized World War One era 107 mm gun M1910/30.


105 mm Armata wz. 29, Users, Finland
Finland bought 12 mle 1913's from France during the Winter War and they also re-barreled six of the Schneider designed and Russian built 107 mm gun M1910's to 105 mm and gave them the designation 105 K/10. The mle 1913 was based on the design of the design of the M1910 and shared similarities. They were also able to purchase 54 captured 105 mm Armata wz. 29 guns from Germany. Of the 54 bought from Germany 40 arrived on the Inga on the 2nd of October 1940 and 14 arrived on the Widor on the 9th of October 1940.


105 mm Armata wz. 29, Users, Finland
In Finnish service, the mle 1913's were given the designation 105 K/13 while the wz. 29's were given the designation 105 K/29. They were assigned to five Heavy Artillery Battalions during Continuation War and many of the guns were fitted with pneumatic tires and sprung axles for motor traction. In 1944, eight guns were lost and after World War II the remainder were placed in reserve until retired.


105 mm Armata wz. 29, Users, Germany
Guns captured during the Polish Campaign were given the German designations 10.5 cm K 13(p) and 10.5 cm K 29(p) and were assigned second line duties, like coastal defense.

105 mm Modèle F1
The 105 mm Modèle F1 (or CN-105-F1) is a French 105 mm tank gun used with the AMX-30. A shorter version of this gun called the CN-105-57, was also used in the Israeli Super Sherman.


105 mm Modèle F1, Design
The gun was a monoblock steel 105-millimeter (4.1 in) cannon protected from bending with a magnesium alloy thermal sleeve. The F1 is fitted with a semi-automatic vertical sliding wedge breechblock, though fitted without a muzzle brake. Unlike the similar 105mm L7 tank gun, the F1 uses a compressed air scavenging system instead of a bore evacuator. The recoil mechanism uses two symmetrically opposed hydraulic brake cylinders with a single hydropneumatic recuperator cylinder.


105 mm Modèle F1, Design
One of the unique features of the gun was the Obus à Charge Creuse de 105 mm Modèle F1 (Obus G) HEAT projectile. HEAT warheads suffer when spin stabilized, a product of rifled barrels, causing the French to develop the Obus G, (Gresse). This projectile was composed of two major parts, including the outer shell and a suspended inner shell, divided by ball bearings. This allowed the projectile to be spin-stabilized, and therefore more accurate than a normal fin-stabilized HEAT-round, while the inner shell did not move, allowing the warhead to work at maximum efficiency.


105 mm Modèle F1, Design
The warhead, containing 780 gram hexolite, could penetrate up to 400 millimeters (16 in) of steel armour and was effective against tanks at up to 3,000 meters (3,300 yd). As it combined a good accuracy with a penetration that was independent of range, it has been considered an "ideal round" for its day The F1 was also designed to fire the OCC F1 Mle.60 high explosive projectile, the SCC F1 training warhead and the OFUM PH-105 F1 smoke round.

105 mm MÁVAG 40/43M
The 105 mm MÁVAG 40/43M was a Hungarian howitzer used in World War II. It was designed and produced by MÁVAG for the Royal Hungarian Army. It was a conservative design with horse traction, box trail and a muzzle brake. It is estimated that only 72 were produced between 1940-1945 with the majority being used to arm the 43M Zrínyi assault gun.


105 mm calibre
105 mm (4.1″) is a common NATO-standard artillery and tank gun calibre. The rifled tank round is defined by STANAG 4458. The artillery round is defined by AOP-29 part 3 with reference to STANAG 4425.


105 mm calibre, Artillery
Since the early 21st century, most NATO armies have centred on 155 mm weapons as having a good compromise between range and destructive power whilst having a single calibre simplifies logistics; however some military forces have retained 105mm towed howitzers for their lightweight and portability. The lower power and shorter range of 105mm ammunition has led to its obsolescence in full-sized self propelled guns such as the American M108 and British Abbot.


105 mm calibre, Tank guns
During the Cold War, the concept of the main battle tank was established and guns of 105mm (NATO) and 100mm (Warsaw Pact) were the standard until the advent of guns of 120mm (NATO) and 125mm (Warsaw Pact) from the 1960s to the 1990s. The L7 was widely used by NATO countries, and is still used in lighter-weight applications such as the Stingray light tank and the Stryker Mobile Gun System as well as older MBTs.


105 mm gun T5E1
The 105mm L/65 T5E1 was an American rifled anti-tank gun developed in 1945. The T5E1 was the main armament for several American WWII heavy tanks designs, including the T29 Heavy Tank.


105 mm gun T5E1, Development
The project to develop a tank gun of 105mm (4.1  in) in caliber was first started during WWII in order to compete with increasing heavily armored German tanks. After the invasion of Europe, the Ordnance Department believed there would be a need for heavily armored tanks equipped with powerful armament to break through fortified areas. They proposed that existing M6 heavy tank prototypes be up-armored and mount the new 105mm T5E1. These modified T1E1s with the T5E1 gun in enlarged turrets (taken from the proposed T29 project) were designated M6A2E1. The M6A2E1 project did not proceed when Eisenhower rejected its use in Europe on August 18, 1944, but two M6A2E1s – without the increased armor – were used to test the armament and gun for the upcoming T29 Heavy Tank.


105 mm gun T5E1, Development
The first models of the T29 Heavy Tank delivered mounted the T5E1. It was mounted in a large cast turret featuring a thick mantlet. With the passage of OCM 28848, the program changed to a postwar developmental study consisting of only eight tanks. The T29E1 and T29E3 series maintained the T5E1 during testing. Models T29 and T29E2 were equipped with the T5E2 gun. This was due to the smaller space available in the turret after the addition of a hydraulic power traverse and elevation mechanism developed from MIT that was tested on these models.


105 mm gun T5E1, Development
The 105mm T5E1 was also used in the T28 Super Heavy Tank (later renamed 105  mm Gun Motor Carriage T95). In 1943 it was determined that there would soon be a need for a heavily armored and -armed breakthrough tank. The turretless T28 was developed to meet these specifications. The T5E1 in the T28 was mounted in the hull of the tank with traverse limited to 10 degrees to the left and right of center, 15 degrees of elevation, and 5 degrees of depression. Two T28s were built, and both were armed with T5E1 guns. The T28 project was canceled in late 1947, bringing the end of the T5E1 being mounted in that tank.


105 mm gun T5E1, Development
With the cancellation of the T28 Super Heavy Tank and T29 Heavy Tank projects in the late 1940s, work on the 105mm T5E1 and 105mm T5E2 was stopped before the gun ever fully completed trials.


105 mm gun T5E1, Performance
The T5E1 used two-part separated ammunition like the 155mm T7 gun used on the T30 Heavy Tank. It had a high velocity of 914 m/s (3,000 ft/s), comparable to the 120mm T53 on the T34 Heavy Tank which also had a muzzle velocity of 945 m/s. The T5E1 had significantly better armor penetration characteristics than the 155mm T7 mounted on the T30 Heavy Tank, which had a muzzle velocity of only 701 m/s (2,300 ft/s).


105 mm gun T5E1, Performance
The T5E1 had a variety of shells available, including the AP-T T32 (APBC-T), HVAP-T T29E3 (APCR-T), and HE T30E1 (HE). At 914m (1,000yd) the AP-T T32 shot could penetrate 177 mm (7.0 in) of rolled homogeneous armor (RHA) at a 30 degree angle, and 84 mm (3.3 in) of RHA at a 60 degree angle.


105 mm gun T8
105mm gun T8 was an anti-tank gun developed in the United States in mid-1940s. This gun's design was influenced by German 88 mm Pak 43/41 anti-tank guns captured by the U.S. Army in France. The development started in October 1944; the gun reached trials in February 1946. Soon afterwards the project was cancelled.


105 mm gun T8, Design
In December, 1942, Allied forces reported that new German armored vehicle designs were resistant to 57 mm anti-tank guns, the largest anti-tank gun available. The US Ordnance Department began preliminary studies on a gun design similar to the German 88 mm Pak 43/41 anti-aircraft gun which was then successfully being used as an anti-tank gun. The first proposal was a combination of the 90 mm M1 Anti-aircraft gun mated to the M2 recoil mechanism from the M2A1 105 mm howitzer. The example was designated 90 mm anti-tank gun T8 on carriage T5.


105 mm gun T8, Design
The T5 gun carriage proved unacceptable due to structural weaknesses found while towing off-road. After two redesigned carriages were tested, the T5E2 was classified as limited standard. After additional trials at Aberdeen Proving Grounds, the T8 gun was found to be too heavy. Alternative carriages were tested, with no carriage found acceptable.


105 mm gun T8, Design
Two new gun/carriages were proposed and tested. The final design selected was the T20E1 gun with the T15 carriage. Three T8 guns were completed in 1944, and a production batch of 400 was ordered. One of the three guns was sent to Europe with the Zebra mission in February, 1945. The Zebra team was sent to the ETO to respond to the criticism of the inadequate anti-tank guns that were then in service.


105 mm gun T8, Design
In early 1945 the entire anti-tank gun issue was re-examined to evaluate the need for large-bore anti-tank guns, as the need in the Pacific did not exist as Japanese armor could easily be penetrated by 37 mm and 57 mm M1 anti-tank guns then available. The Panzerkampfwagen Tiger Ausf. B (King Tiger) and Panzerjäger Tiger Ausf. B (Jagdtiger) were found to be armored beyond the anti-tank guns then in use or proposed. Work was started on a 105 mm version of the T8 using the T19 split trail carriage in October 1944.


105 mm gun T8, Design
The T8 105 mm anti-tank gun weighed about eight tons. It had a split trail carriage and magnesium wheels with synthetic rubber tires. In transportation, the mount could be rotated 180 degrees in order to reduce the length of the piece. The gun fired a 17.7 kg (39 lbs) armor-piercing projectile at 914 m/s (3,000 ft/s), resulting in the penetration of 210 mm (8.27 in) at 1,000 m (1,093 yds), 0 degrees.


105 mm gun T8, Display
Two pilot guns and carriages were built; one of those is on display in the United States Army Ordnance Museum, Aberdeen, Maryland, United States.


105 series
The 105 series (105系, 105-kei) is a DC electric multiple unit (EMU) train type formerly operated by Japanese National Railways (JNR), and currently operated on local services by West Japan Railway Company (JR West) in Japan since 1981. They were also formerly operated by East Japan Railway Company (JR East).


105 series, Overview
The 105 series was introduced in 1981 to replace early EMU types operating on the Fukuen Line, Ube Line, and Onoda Line in western Japan. The rural nature and low line speed of these lines meant that 101 series or 103 series commuter EMUs would have been unnecessarily over-powered with their high proportion of motored cars, and so the 105 series was designed with one motored car per two cars.


105 series, Overview
The first sets introduced were 105-0 series two-car sets which were newly built in 1981 with three pairs of doors per side. 105-500 series two-car sets were later introduced, converted from former 103 series EMU cars, with four pairs of doors per side.


105 series, Overview
As of 1 April 2012, 56 2-car sets are operated by JR-West, based at Hineno, Okayama, Shimonoseki, and Hiroshima depots.


105 series, 105-0 series
60 105-0 series vehicles were built in 1981, formed as two-car sets for use on the Onoda Line and Ube Line, and four-car sets for use on the Fukuen Line. Initially, these sets were not equipped with air-conditioning.


105 series, 105-0 series, Formations, 4-car sets
The KuMoHa and MoHa cars were each equipped with one lozenge-type pantograph.


105 series, 105-0 series, Interior
Seating accommodation consists of longitudinal bench seating throughout each car.


105 series, 105-0 series, Interior
A non-air-conditioned 105-0 series set in Fukuen Line livery in 1987


105 series, 105-500/600 series
The 105-500/600 series variant was introduced from October 1984, coinciding with the electrification of the Nara Line between Kyoto and Nara, and the Wakayama Line between Wakayama and Gojō. Budget restraints prevented the construction of new trains, and instead, former Jōban Line 103-1000 series EMU cars made surplus by the introduction of 203 series EMUs were modified with the addition of new cab ends to form 2-car 105-500 series sets.


105 series, Senseki Line sets
In March 1987, four former 103 series air-conditioned driving cars were converted to become 2-car 105 series sets for use on the Senseki Line in the Sendai area. These sets retained the original non-gangwayed 103 series cab ends.


105-Man Incident
The 105-Man Incident (Hangul: 105인 사건; Hanja: 百五人事件; RR: Baego-in Sageon) or Seoncheon Incident (Hangul: 선천사건; Hanja: 宣川事件; RR: Seoncheon Sageon) took place while Korea was under Japanese rule.


105-Man Incident
In 1911, apparently as a result of several Korean attempts in 1910 to assassinate Masatake Terauchi, the Governor-General of Korea (Chōsen Sōtoku), over 700 Koreans, many of whom were Christians, were arrested. In 1912, the Governor-General sent 122 of those arrested to the Court of Justice, and 105 of them were sentenced to imprisonment with hard labor. In the end, only six Koreans had their sentences imposed, but even they were released in 1915 after being granted amnesty.


105-Man Incident, Details
The incident began in Sensen, a coastal town in Heian-hoku Prefecture. On December 28, 1910, the American missionary George McCune met with Terauchi. The Japanese claimed it was an assassination attempt and arrested over 700 Koreans starting in October 1911. Lead Christian members of Sinminhoe (a Korean independence movement) were specifically targeted in the arrests, and as a result, the organization was dissolved. In particular, notable activists Kim Gu, Cha Yi-seok, and Yang Jeon-baek were imprisoned. A trial of 123 defendants held on June 28, 1912, took place without evidence and confessions were extracted under torture. 105 were found to be guilty of treason and sentenced to forced labor.


105-Man Incident, Details, Western View
Initially, westerners were accepting of the incident as they had a favorable view of the Japanese and thought it might be necessary in the time of change. However, when the missionaries began feeling victimized, they distanced themselves from the Japanese government and outside pressure finally forced them to grant amnesty to the prisoners in 1915.

Any reference of this minor planet's name to a person or occurrence is unknown.


1050 Meta, Naming, Unknown meaning
Among the many thousands of named minor planets, Meta is one of 120 asteroids, for which no official naming citation has been published. All of these asteroids have low numbers between 164 Eva and 1514 Ricouxa and were discovered between 1876 and the 1930s, predominantly by astronomers Auguste Charlois, Johann Palisa, Max Wolf and Karl Reinmuth (also see category of asteroid names with unknown origin).


1050 Meta, Physical characteristics
According to the overall spectral type for members of the Eunomia family, Meta is an assumed S-type asteroid.


1050 Meta, Physical characteristics, Rotation period and poles
In October 2006, a rotational lightcurve of Meta was obtained from photometric observations by French amateur astronomer René Roy. Lightcurve analysis gave a well-defined rotation period of 6.142 hours with a brightness amplitude of 0.46 magnitude, indicating that the asteroid has an elongated shape (U=3).


1050 Meta, Physical characteristics, Rotation period and poles
A modeled lightcurve using photometric data from the Lowell Photometric Database was published in 2016. It gave a concurring period of 6.14188 hours, as well as two spin axes at (60.0°, −42.0°) and (198.0°, −79.0°) in ecliptic coordinates (λ, β).


1050 Meta, Physical characteristics, Diameter and albedo
According to the surveys carried out by the Japanese Akari satellite and the NEOWISE mission of NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, Meta measures between 8.773 and 10.03 kilometers in diameter  and its surface has an albedo between 0.294 and 0.364.


1050 Meta, Physical characteristics, Diameter and albedo

1050 aluminium alloy
1050 aluminium alloy is an aluminium-based alloy in the "commercially pure" wrought family (1000 or 1xxx series). As a wrought alloy, it is not used in castings. Instead, it is usually formed by extrusion or rolling. It is commonly used in the electrical and chemical industries, on account of having high electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance, and workability. 1050 alloy is also sometimes used for the manufacture of heat sinks, since it has a higher thermal conductivity than other alloys. It has low mechanical strength compared to more significantly alloyed metals. It can be strengthened by cold working, but not by heat treatment.


1050 aluminium alloy
Alternate names and designations include Al99.5, 3.0255, and A91050. It is described in the following standards:

It orbits the Sun in the outermost asteroid belt at a distance of 2.9–3.5 AU once every 5 years and 9 months (2,105 days; semi-major axis of 3.21 AU). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.10 and an inclination of 24° with respect to the ecliptic.


1051 Merope, Orbit and classification
The asteroid was first observed as A908 TE at Taunton Observatory (803) in October 1908. The body's observation arc begins at Heidelberg in October 1925, or three weeks after its official discovery observation.


1051 Merope, Physical characteristics
Merope has been characterized as a primitive P-type asteroid by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE), and as a common carbonaceous C-type asteroid by Pan-STARRS' photometric survey.


1051 Merope, Physical characteristics, Rotation period
In March 2009, a rotational lightcurve of Merope was obtained from photometric observations by astronomers at the Oakley Southern Sky Observatory in Australia. Lightcurve analysis gave a rotation period of 27.2 hours with a brightness variation of 0.20 magnitude (U=2). In October 2012, astronomers at the Palomar Transient Factory in California measured a period 13.717 hours with an amplitude of 0.11 magnitude in the R-band (U=2), which seems to be an alternative period solution (1:2 alias) of what the Australian astronomers had previously measured. Previous observations by Gino Farroni and by Federico Manzini from 2004 and 2005, respectively, have been provisional and of poor quality (U=1/1).


1051 Merope, Physical characteristics, Diameter and albedo
According to the surveys carried out by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite IRAS, the Japanese Akari satellite and the NEOWISE mission of NASA's WISE telescope, Merope measures between 60.439 and 74.36 kilometers in diameter and its surface has an albedo between 0.03 and 0.053.

1052 Belgica
1052 Belgica, provisional designation 1925 VD, is a binary Florian asteroid from the inner regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 10 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered on 15 November 1925, by Belgian astronomer Eugène Delporte at Uccle Observatory in Belgium. It was the first minor planet discovered at Uccle Observatory, after which the minor planet 1276 Ucclia was named.


1052 Belgica
1052 is named after the Western European state of Belgium.


1052 Belgica, Classification and orbit
Belgica is a member of the Flora family, one of the largest groups of stony asteroids in the main-belt. It orbits the Sun at a distance of 1.9–2.6 AU once every 3 years and 4 months (1,222 days). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.14 and an inclination of 5° with respect to the ecliptic. Belgica was first identified as A908 TB at Heidelberg in 1908. The body's observation arc begins with its first used observation taken at Uccle/Bergedorf in 1933, or 8 years after its official discovery at Uccle.


1052 Belgica, Physical characteristics
In both the Tholen and SMASS taxonomy, Belgica is classified as a common stony S-type asteroid.


1052 Belgica, Physical characteristics, Rotation period
Between December 2012, and January 2013, photometric observations of Belgica were taken at several observatories in Italy, the Czech Republic, Spain and the United States. They gave three concurring lightcurves with a rotation period of 2.709 hours and a brightness variation of 0.08 to 0.10 magnitude, indicating a nearly spheroidal shape for the asteroid's body (U=2/3/n.a. ).


1052 Belgica, Physical characteristics, Satellite
The photometric observations also revealed, that Belgica is a binary system with an asteroid moon, approximately 36% the diameter of its primary, orbiting it every 47.26±0.02 hours. Johnston's archive derives a diameter of 3.53 kilometers and estimates a semi-major axis of 34 kilometer for the moon.


1052 Belgica, Physical characteristics, Diameter and albedo
According to the survey carried out by NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer with its subsequent NEOWISE mission, Belgica measures 9.78 and 10.406 kilometers in diameter and its surface has an albedo of 0.301 and 0.273, respectively, while the Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes a standard albedo for stony asteroids of 0.20 and derives a diameter of 10.94 kilometers with an absolute magnitude of 12.17. This agrees with the estimated diameter of 11±2 kilometers by Franco et al.


1052 Belgica, Naming
This minor planet was named in honor of the state of Belgium. The name "Belgica" was suggested during the height of World War I by American astronomer Joel Hastings Metcalf, but the Director of the German Astronomisches Rechen-Institut in Berlin, Fritz Cohn, rejected the proposal based on political considerations, as Belgium was occupied by German troops at the time.


1052 Belgica, Naming
In his Dictionary of Minor Planets Names, astronomer Lutz Schmadel described this piece of history involving minor planet names in detail. Naming citation was first mentioned in The Names of the Minor Planets by Paul Herget in 1955 (H 100).

10538 Overture
"10538 Overture" is the debut single by Electric Light Orchestra (ELO), released in 1972.


10538 Overture, History
The song, written by Jeff Lynne, was first recorded as an intended B-side for a single by the Move, Lynne's previous group. Both Roy Wood and Lynne sang on it, as happened later with The Move's "California Man". The song is about an escaped prisoner; Lynne wanted to give the character in the song a number, as opposed to a name, and he chanced upon the number 1053 while looking at the mixing console. Wood suggested adding an "8" to fit the melody better. Although intended to be a song for The Move, after cello parts were added it became the Electric Light Orchestra's first release. It was during the single's chart run that Wood left ELO, emerging later in the year with a new band called Wizzard.


10538 Overture, Quotes
10538 Overture was an idea that Jeff (Lynne) brought along to the studio which was originally to be a Move track. After recording the basic backing track, the other guys went home, leaving Jeff and myself to run riot with the overdubs. At the time, I was very keen on collecting instruments, and had just acquired a cheap Chinese cello. After we had finished overdubbing the guitars, I sat in the control room trying out this cello and sort of messing around with Jimi Hendrix type riffs. Jeff said, 'That sounds great, why don't we throw it on the track.' I ended up recording around fifteen of these, and as the instrumentation built up, it was beginning to sound like some monster heavy metal orchestra. In fact, it sounded just bloody marvellous.


10538 Overture, Quotes
I had this guitar track, like a real big riff on a guitar. I laid it down in the studio and Roy Wood got his cello, his Chinese cello, and he overdubbed about fifteen cello riffs, just double tracking all the time-- and it sounded fantastic. We thought, it was like 'Wow!' and we just sat round playing it for days.


10538 Overture, B-side
The B-side to "10538 Overture" was "First Movement (Jumping Biz)", an instrumental by Wood. The song first appeared on the band's debut album The Electric Light Orchestra in 1971 and features Wood on classical guitar, oboe and cello. Wood has apparently acknowledged that "First Movement (Jumping Biz)" was inspired by the 1968 song "Classical Gas".

By [Roy Wood's] own admission First Movement (Jumping Biz) owed a debt to Mason Williams' transatlantic 1968 hit Classical Gas...


10538 Overture, B-side
"10538 Overture" became a B-side itself when a live version was released as the flip side of "Evil Woman" in 1975.


10538 Overture, Jeff Lynne version
Jeff Lynne re-recorded the song in his own home studio. It was released on a compilation album with other re-recorded ELO songs, under the ELO name.


10538 Overture, Covers and other uses
The song was covered by Bobby Sutliff and Mitch Easter in 2001 for the Jeff Lynne tribute album Lynne Me Your Ears, by Parthenon Huxley in 2005, and by Def Leppard in 2006 on their cover album Yeah! The song's main guitar riff was also 'sampled' by Paul Weller for his 1995 song "The Changingman". The song was also featured in the 2013 film American Hustle.

1054 Forsytia
1054 Forsytia /fɔːrˈsɪtiə/ is a dark background asteroid, approximately 46 kilometers in diameter, from the outer regions of the asteroid belt. It was discovered on 20 November 1925, by astronomer Karl Reinmuth at the Heidelberg-Königstuhl State Observatory in southwest Germany and assigned provisional designation 1925 WD. It is named after the flowering plant forsythia, and marks the beginning of a sequence of 28 thematically named asteroids by the discoverer.


1054 Forsytia, Orbit and classification
Forsytia is a non-family asteroid from the main belt's background population. It orbits the Sun in the outer asteroid belt at a distance of 2.5–3.3 AU once every 5.00 years (1,826 days; semi-major axis of 2.92 AU). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.14 and an inclination of 11° with respect to the ecliptic. The asteroid was first observed as A907 EA at Heidelberg in March 1907. The body's observation arc begins with its official discovery observation in November 1925.


1054 Forsytia, Naming
This minor planet was named after forsythia, a genus of flowering shrubs in the family Oleaceae. The official naming citation was mentioned in The Names of the Minor Planets by Paul Herget in 1955 (H 100).


1054 Forsytia, Naming, Reinmuth's flowers
Due to his many discoveries, Karl Reinmuth submitted a large list of 66 newly named asteroids in the early 1930s. The list covered his discoveries with numbers between (1009) and (1200). This list also contained a sequence of 28 asteroids, starting with this asteroid, that were all named after plants, in particular flowering plants (also see list of minor planets named after animals and plants).


1054 Forsytia, Physical characteristics, Rotation period
In March 2002, a rotational lightcurve of Forsytia was obtained from photometric observations by American amateur astronomer John Gross at his Sonoran Skies Observatory (G94) in Arizona. Lightcurve analysis gave a well-defined rotation period of 7.650 hours with a brightness amplitude of 0.23 magnitude (U=3).


1054 Forsytia, Physical characteristics, Diameter and albedo
According to the surveys carried out by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite IRAS, the Japanese Akari satellite and the NEOWISE mission of NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, Forsytia measures between 42.867 and 53.04 kilometers in diameter and its surface has an albedo between 0.035 and 0.0750. The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link derives an albedo of 0.0592 and a diameter of 45.42 kilometers based on an absolute magnitude of 10.4.

1055 Tynka
1055 Tynka, provisional designation 1925 WG, is a stony Florian asteroid from the inner regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 10 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered on 17 November 1925, by Czech astronomer Emil Buchar at the Algiers Observatory in North Africa, who named it after his mother Tynka Buchar.


1055 Tynka, Orbit and classification
Tynka is a member of the Flora family (402), a giant asteroid family and the largest family of stony asteroids in the main belt. It orbits the Sun in the inner asteroid belt at a distance of 1.7–2.7 AU once every 3 years and 3 months (1,190 days). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.21 and an inclination of 5° with respect to the ecliptic.


1055 Tynka, Orbit and classification
The body's observation arc begins with its identification as A902 TB at Heidelberg Observatory in October 1902, more than 23 years prior to its official discovery observation at Algiers.


1055 Tynka, Physical characteristics
Tynka is a common stony S-type asteroid in both the Tholen and SMASS classification, which agrees with the overall spectral type for members of the Flora family.


1055 Tynka, Physical characteristics, Rotation period
Three rotational lightcurves of Tynka were independently obtained from photometric observations by astronomers David Higgins, Agnieszka Kryszczyńska and Robert Stephens. Lightcurve analysis gave a rotation period of 11.75 and 11.893 hours with a brightness variation between 0.06 and 0.33 magnitude (U=2-/2/2). An alternative period solution of 5.9818 hours with an amplitude of 0.17 was measured by French amateur astronomer René Roy in April 2012 (U=2).


1055 Tynka, Physical characteristics, Diameter and albedo
According to the surveys carried out by the Japanese Akari satellite and the NEOWISE mission of NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, Tynka measures 8.95 and 13.48 kilometers in diameter and its surface has an albedo of 0.169 and 0.350, respectively.


1055 Tynka, Physical characteristics, Diameter and albedo
The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes an albedo of 0.24 – derived from 8 Flora, the largest member and namesake of the Flora family – and calculates a diameter of 10.31 kilometers based on an absolute magnitude of 12.1.


1055 Tynka, Naming
This minor planet was named by the discoverer after his mother Tynka Buchar. The official naming citation was mentioned in The Names of the Minor Planets by Paul Herget in 1955 (H 100). Emil Buchar (1901–1979) worked at the Institute of Astronomy and Geophysics at the Technical University in Prague and was a pioneer of satellite geodesy. This asteroid was his only minor-planet discovery. The minor planet 3141 Buchar was named in his honor.


10551 Göteborg
10551 Göteborg, provisional designation 1992 YL2, is a stony Eoan asteroid and slow rotator from the outer region of the asteroid belt, approximately 13 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered on 18 December 1992, by Belgian astronomer Eric Elst at CERGA in Caussols (010), southeastern France. The asteroid was named after the Swedish city of Gothenburg (Göteborg).


10551 Göteborg, Orbit and classification
Göteborg is a member of the Eos family, an orbital group of more than 4,000 asteroids, which are well known for mostly being of stony composition with a relatively high albedo. It orbits the Sun in the outer main-belt at a distance of 2.8–3.2 AU once every 5 years and 2 months (1,892 days). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.06 and an inclination of 11° with respect to the ecliptic.


10551 Göteborg, Orbit and classification
The body's observation arc begins 61 years prior to its official discovery observation, with a precovery taken the night before its first identification as 1931 AK at Lowell Observatory in January 1931.


10551 Göteborg, Physical characteristics, Slow rotator
In September 2012, photometric observations of Göteborg at the Palomar Transient Factory, California, rendered a rotational lightcurve with a period of 335.3458 hours, or 14 days, and a brightness variation of 0.70 magnitude (U=2). This makes a slow rotator, as most asteroids of this size typically have much shorter rotation periods.


10551 Göteborg, Physical characteristics, Diameter and albedo
According to the survey carried out by the NEOWISE mission of NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, Göteborg measures 15.491 and 15.689 kilometers in diameter and its surface has an albedo of 0.084 and 0.1169, respectively The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes an albedo of 0.14, taken from 221 Eos, the family's largest member and namesake – and calculates a diameter of 11.53 kilometers based on an absolute magnitude of 12.44.


10551 Göteborg, Naming
This minor planet was named after Gothenburg (Göteborg), Sweden's second-largest city and the largest port in the Nordic countries, located on the country's southwest coast. Founded in the early 17th century and heavily influenced by the Dutch, the city still has its typical canal system. Later, the Swedes acquired political power over Gothenburg and the city flourished with the development of the Swedish East India Company in the early 18th century. The approved naming citation was published by the Minor Planet Center on 20 March 2000 (M.P.C. 39655).
