 In January 2008, rotational lightcurves of "Gavrilin" were obtained from photometric observations by the BINAST group including David Higgins at the Hunters Hill Observatory in Australia and Petr Pravec at the Ondřejov Observatory in the Czech Republic.Lightcurve analysis gave a rotation period of 49.12 hours with a brightness amplitude of 0.25 magnitude ().The photometric observation also revealed that "Gavrilin" is a synchronous binary asteroid with a minor-planet moon in its orbit.
