Table 2:

Most important correlations found using the light curve parameters and orbital/physical variables as described in the text. The parameters presented are the light curve amplitude (Ampl.), the perihelion (q) and aphelion (Q) distances, inclination (i), eccentricity (e) and absolute magnitude (H).
