283 Emma is a large asteroid of the asteroid belt and the namesake of the Emma family. It was discovered by Auguste Charlois on 8 February 1889, in Nice, France. The reason for its name is unknown.[5]

Measurements made with the IRAS observatory give a diameter of 145.70±5.89 km and a geometric albedo of 0.03±0.01. By comparison, the MIPS photometer on the Spitzer Space Telescope gives a diameter of 145.44±7.72 km and a geometric albedo of 0.03±0.01. When the asteroid was observed occulting a star, the results showed a diameter of 148.00±16.26 km.[6]

Satellite

A companion for 283 Emma was detected on 14 July 2003 by W. J. Merline et al. using the Keck II telescope and is designated S/2003 (283) 1. The discovery was reported in the International Astronomical Union Circular (IAUC) 8165.[7] The satellite orbits at a semi-major axis of about 581 km with an eccentricity of 0.12.[3] Emma has a Hill sphere with a radius of about 28,000 km.[3]
