Spin Change of Asteroid 2012 TC4 Probably by Radiation Torques

Asteroid 2012 TC4 is a small (similar to 10 m) near-Earth object that was observed during its Earth close approaches in 2012 and 2017. Earlier analyses of light curves revealed its excited rotation state. We collected all available photometric data from the two apparitions to reconstruct its rotatio...
