Dwarf planet to gradually become tidally locked, such that it always presents the same face to its companion. An extreme example of this is the Pluto–Charon system, where both bodies are tidally locked to each other. Earth's Moon is also tidally locked, as are many satellites of the gas giants. The upper and lower size and mass limits of dwarf planets have not been specified by the IAU. There is no defined upper limit, and an object larger or more massive than Mercury that has not "cleared the neighbourhood around its orbit" would be classified as a dwarf planet. The lower limit
15810 Arawn resonance with Neptune, similarly to dwarf planet Pluto, the largest known plutino. It measures approximately in diameter, based on an absolute magnitude of 7.6, and estimated albedo of 0.1. In April 2016, a rotation period of 5.47 hours was determined for this minor planet. In 2012, Arawn was hypothesized to be in a quasi-satellite loop around Pluto, as part of a recurring pattern, becoming a Plutonian quasi-satellite every 2 Myr and remaining in that phase for nearly 350,000 years. Measurements made by the "New Horizons" probe in 2015 made it possible to calculate the motion of Arawn much more accurately.
