Figure 3.
The results of a combined pole and spin-state change (YORP factor) search using all available light curves are shown in the upper panel, and using a selection of light curves in the lower panel. The horizontal axis indicates the rate of change of angular rotation rate expressed in rad/d2 (the YORP factor) and on the vertical axis, the quality of the fit for the best shape model developed assuming the given YORP factor. The χ2 differences are very small, with the green horizontal lines marking $1{{\ \rm per\ cent}}$ increase above the minimal values, and the red lines marking $5{{\ \rm per\ cent}}$ increase. The grey circle in each panel indicates the minimum χ2 value.
