Abstract: Collaborative photometric observations of two main-belt asteroids were conducted from five observatories in order to determine their synodic rotation periods. For 3157 Novikov we found a period of 9.952 ± 0.001 h with an amplitude of 0.31 ± 0.04 mag, for 7485 Changchun we found a period of 10.234 ± 0.001 h with an amplitude of 0.39 ± 0.02 mag.<br />peer-reviewed
