Photoelectric photometry of asteroids 33 Polyhymnia and 386 SiegenaThe photometric parameters of 33 Polyhymnia and 386 Siegena were determined in the course of an international campaign performed during August 15-September 14, 1980 at Table Mountain Observatory, European Southern Observatory, and Catania Astrophysical Observatory. The rotational periods and amplitudes were determined, and the multiple-scattering factor was found to be 0.15 plus or minus 0.06 for 386 and 0.26 plus or minus 0.33 for 33, implying higher albedos in each case than expected according to their taxonomic classes, C and S, respectively. The color indices B-V and U-B were measured and found to differ significantly from those given by Bowell et al. (1979).
