/ Abstract

In frame of an implementation of the cooperative program studying of asteroids between the Kharadze Abastumani Astrophysical Observatory and the Astronomical Institute of V.N. Karazin Kharkiv National University the observations for five main-belt asteroids were performed to obtain their magnitude-phase relations and other physical characteristics. Preliminary results of the photometrical observations for the large dark asteroid (1390) Abastumani are presented.
